I use FF. Which button would bring me to the top of a page? 'Home'
doesn't work, and what would be that button on an Apple computer having
one of those brand new Apple wireless keyboards? (They do not sport the
'Home'-Button on their keyboards). I have never met anybody (I mean not
a 'geek') knowing that there is a button or a shortcut bringing him/she
to the top of a page.

No, no browser sniffing... Server side I use the LocaleIDs of the UA via
ASP (ServerVariables("HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE")) in order to format date
stamps. But I believe it is not correctly working.
cheers for the remarks
