detecting browser or os

How does one detect for Internet Explorer on Windows CE? Does
Request.Browser.Browser return anything unique for IE CE? I have a
strange situation where I need to develop a user interface to a web app
for CE, but at the moment I do not have a pocket device on which to test
it. Anything else i should be aware of? Thanks!

Phil,

You would probably check the user agent string that the browser sends.
The OS version should be in there, and from there, you should be able to
tell what the OS is. You can get it through the UserAgent property on the
request.

Hope this helps.
