Can I target delivery by browser?

Can I target delivery by browser?
Yes. This is done using the Delivery Controls feature and targeting by user-agent.
Each browser version has a unique user-agent identifier.
Here is a link to a list of user-agents for all browser types:

For example, if you want to only deliver to Microsoft IE 7 browser, you first lookup the MSIE 7 user-agent string, which looks something like this:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)
The above user-agent info will vary depending on the OS of the computer and other factors. But the important portion of the user-agent for browser targeting is the "MSIE 7.0" text.
In AHS you would create a delivery control to serve only to MSIE 7 browsers like:
Deliver only when User Agent matches the string MSIE 7.0
