Change is_iphone so that it doesn't detect iPad

[bummzack]

I think the is_iphone method should be rewritten to:

return (preg_match('/(ipod;|iphone;)/i', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'])) ? true : false;

By adding the semicolons you're making sure that you match the "correct" part of the user-agent string (the user-agent string also contains iphone on an iPad somewhere, but by adding the semicolon ensures you capture the right part).

I've read the other issues/change requests regarding different templates for different devices and I support that idea. Since iPad and iPhone are quite different when it comes to screen-estate and browsing behavior, iPad should be treated separately or at least not considered to be an iPhone or a "mobile device" at all (hence this issue).

+1. Kind of surprised me to see my site's mobile theme being served up to ipad.

actually, the issue seems to be related to this line (around line 72 of MobileBrowserDetector.php):

case(preg_match('/(up.browser|up.link|mmp|symbian|smartphone|midp|wap|vodafone|o2|pocket|kindle|mobile|pda|psp|treo)/i', $agent)):

iPad has 'Mobile' in the UA string so iPad is triggering is_mobile.
Possible solution:
case(preg_match('/(up.browser|up.link|mmp|symbian|smartphone|midp|wap|vodafone|o2|pocket|kindle|mobile|pda|psp|treo)/i', $agent) && (stripos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'ipad') === false)):
