A few line in your vcl configuration and there you go. You can even put a rules to indicate that if there is a GET parameter or a cookie, you don't redirect the user. It means that you can simply add a link on your mobile website to send the user back on the desktop website if he prefers. I like this approach as it is directly on your first frontend (or load balancer) and you don't even need to load you php app to redirect the user. Regards, -- bacardi55 (bacardi55.org)
