HTTP is one thing. You may well be served different content based on *javascript level* UA string. I know of at least one UA, iCab, that allows you to configure it to send different javascript level UA strings to work around such cases. Beyond that, I wouldn't be surprised if you get different content based on javascript code itself working or not working as the author intended. Might be neglible though. There's also the possibility that you get served different content based on IP address. (Sites, like Google, assuming they can figure out your favourite language from your IP address, for instance.) -- Sander Tekelenburg The Web Repair Initiative: <http://webrepair.org/>
