You could try this, too: request.set('portal_skin', 'Mobile') context.setupCurrentSkin(request) Hope that helps, Kevin -----Original Message----- From: zope-cmf-admin@zope.org [mailto:zope-cmf-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of chad nantais Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 5:25 PM To: sean.upton@uniontrib.com; zope-cmf@zope.org Subject: RE: [Zope-CMF] Redirection of mobile users It is not working, as per your instructions below.

Have you considered something similar to the toggleSkin recipe on zopelabs? This uses hostname as a determiner of the skin that it loaded. However, there is nothing (I don't think at least) that says you can't use useragent in an access rule script similarly...

http://www.zopelabs.com/cookbook/1028172355 is the recipe. There is a typo/bug in the last line of the code, the last comment on the page addresses this (changeSkin() takes the name of the skin, not the request object)...

Good luck.

Sean

I want to perform redirection of mobile users to a 'Mobile' skin that is stripped down.

I want this function to be performed before any object in my portal is called, in case a mobile user calls an object like an article.

I am going to use this bit of python in my main_template skin to detect if the user is a non-PC user: python:request.HTTP_USER_AGENT[:7]!='Mozilla'

Any suggestions on how to have the skin change to 'Mobile' if the above condition is met, before the page fully loads in its generic skin?

Thanks,

Chad Nantais
