    I'm gonna chime-in and go against the grain. I sugggest using orrinward2's approach and just push users to a separate website. That saves downloading all the desktop content and code, which will just be turned-off with CSS and JS. Think of your mobile website in terms of what's good for mobile, and structure it to be the best mobile experience, rather than trying to fit the square peg of a full website into the round hole of a mobile view.

    A responsive full-site that adapts to tablet/touch interaction rather than mouse is probably important.

    Here's a suggested approach for htaccess:

    and an interesting article on responsive vs dedicated.
