Thanks for the many references. I have started to go through them. And to my delight several are the very articles I was hoping to find again. However, I don't quite understand the idea that this is off-topic. My immediate application for hacking the css to somehow recognize the device is so that I can modify a fixed height div. In desktop systems (mouse-ish) the fixed height div with vertical scroll works fine for my needs. But in ipad, etc. the div has no scroll bar and appears to require the not well known two finger swipe to scroll within the div. My dream was to find a hack that would let me modify the css for this div so that height restrictions and scroll could be removed for those devices. And if at all possible, I was hoping it could be fully css without recourse to javascript or the ilk. Hopefully modifying my css to accommodate different devices is not off-topic. But then again, I could easily have misunderstood your comment.
