I recently read where a credit union website system can detect that you are coming from a web enabled smartphone and automatically redirect you to their mobile site. In other words they automatically display their mobile website instead of their computer website on a smartphone. How is this possible? Thanks

Check the browser useragent string for a known mobile device footprint and redirect if it matches.
