With the exception of capturing browser statistics (where you know the results will not be completely accurate) scripts should never test the useragent value as a part of their processing - any script that does is using a technique that was obsolete in Netscape 2 when feature sensing was introduced.[/quote]
Yes indeed, feature detection is a much more reliable way of providing support for different browsers.

Perhaps more controversial than that, is to do no detection and allow less capable browsers to fail.
