If you are lucky there are no double (input-)values for Mac and PC and you can use the same conversion db. If you get double values, ask the client for the user agent and send the text through the appropriate conversion dbExample fot testing: [browsername]
[showif [browsername]^mac] This is a Macintosh [/showif] [showif [browsername]^win] This is a Windows PC [/showif] [showif [browsername]^linux] This is Linux [/showif] [showif [browsername]^irix] This is an SGI machine [/showif] [showif [browsername]^sun] This is a SUN [/showif]BTW, the code example above would be better to handle within a case-loop. I am not in the beta program - are such loops planned for the next version of WebCat?
