Subject: Re: Switch User Agent

Sorry mate I meant User Agent (I'm a bit new to the world of ruby and 
internet)
What I'm doing is a web site that changes normal PC websites into MCS 
sites I've got three ifreams so that the rendered sites can be 
previewed, all I need to do is change the user agent of the request 
object so that my application delivers the content for different user 
agents.

Thanks a lot !
