 * Hello,
    there are html5 pages with css 3 on most of the wordpress sites today,
   and this was intergrated in most of themes, also it is advantage of wordpress
   theme to sell, even it is a already a standard requirement for theme development
   on themeforest.com.
 * unfortunately, there are always so manny browsers which was slimed on both google
   store and APPLE store. please search and you will note the truth. the web page
   with HTML5 and css3 does never work well in those browsers, and the contents 
   will look like a mess.
 * so, it would be great if there is a way to detect the user agent so that we can
   redirect these browses user to a notification page, and ask these to change browser
   to chrome or firefox or safari.
 * The most impotant reason why we need this function is lots of browser on user
   devices were out of update, even they are using chrome, firefox, safari, and 
   rich content and html5 page.will does not display properly either.
 * here is a plugin for your referace to.understand the situation we.are.facing.
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-browser-update/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-browser-update/)
 * and those outdate browser does not support ssl with tls 1.2 and 1.3, and this
   means there will be only a security waninng message, but any non techincial backgroud
   user do not understand what.happened, they just think.the.site was broken.
 * Anyway, it would be great if it support user agent.detect and custom redirect
   pages.
 * what you think?
 * Alex
