Exclusive CSS for iPhone/Android

I'm making a mobile-friendly stylesheet for a page of mine. Is there a simple way to make it show that stylesheet to iPhone/Android users? Or do I have to pull the user-agents and figure it out that way - and how do I do that?

Also - any tools to make this sort of web dev easier?

Try this, using navigator.userAgent in JavaScript ;) (courtesy of this awesome post http://css-tricks.com/snippets/javascript/redirect-mobile-devices/):

if ((navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/)) || (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPod/))) {
   alert("we've got an iDevice, Scotty");
}

if (navigator.userAgent.match(/Android/)) {
   alert("Droid me baby");
}

You could do something like this, if your stylesheet is the same for iOS/android.

<link rel="stylesheet" media="only screen and (max-device-width: 480px)" href="css/mobile.css" type="text/css" />

But if you're trying to detect if it's the iOS OR Android, then you'll need to do detection.

In terms of making mobile dev easier, there's a ton of stuff:

There's a few to get you started :)

Hope this helps.
