Kemper responded directly to me, forgetting to include <www-style@w3.org> in the distribution of his message. His response is as follows. *************************** From: Brad Kemper <brkemper@comcast.net> Subject: Re: Proposal of @ua Date: Sun, 18 Nov 2007 11:04:53 -0800 The one I proposed suggested being able to detect both the rendering engine and the browser, so that one could also account for browser- specific items, such as how form fields are drawn (different in Camino than in FireFox, for instance). But I agree that the renderer (Gecko, Webkit, Trident, etc.) is more important. I never said that the entire UA string should be used, as that is already hopelessly muddied. I suggested a media query that the software could provide simple, honest values to, not something that is derived from javascript or HTTP headers. We already have that. David E.
