I've found some js code that does a fairly simple check to see what type of device browser a user is using to view a domino website. If it is one of the mobile devices we check for, I want it to bounce the user to a different url. Here is the code:

if ((navigator.userAgent.indexOf('iPhone') != -1) || (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('iPod') != -1) || (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('iPad') != -1))
{
location.href="some url";
}

If I put it in a button for testing purposes it works fine. I need to put it in a form that is displayed in a frameset for a website. So when the homepage is opened it will check for a mobile device and then bounce the user to our mobile website. I thought the onLoad event of the form in the top pane of the frameset would be the best spot but it won't do the redirect. Where can I put this code that will execute the location.href line?
