Look into examining the User-Agent header.

you could use $_SERVER with HTTP_USER_AGENT http://php.net/manual/en/tutorial.useful.php

Auto detect mobile browser (via user-agent?)

What is a user-agent? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_agent

Check out Tera-WURFL (http://dbapi.scientiamobile.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page). It's an API that detects the capabilities of mobile devices. We use it here to determine whether to forward a user to desktop or mobile version of our applications.
