Browser-Specific Master Pages

When you are trying to create a master page for your website, you may just wonder how can you make them that every user with any browser can call your pages up. No matter they are using IE or Firefox or even Opera on their tiny PocketPC.

You can easily design different pages for different container. How? By adding an attribute into master page property.

<%@ Page language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Test.master"
      Mozilla:MasterPageFile="~/TestMozilla.master"
      Opera:MasterPageFile="~/TestOpera.master" %>
....

You can find a list of available browsers on the production server where the application will be hosted at C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\Browsers\
