 Well, yes. It can be handled by javascript and CSS a lot better than by
 Squid or the web server.

 Squid provides a "browser" type ACL to scan for regex patterns in the
 User-Agent string. But it is really hard to tell the difference between
 UA on smartphones, tablets, notebooks, projectors and PCs these days.
 I'm apt to say don't bother since you can design the page to be flexible
 on its own.
