How do I not load a div only on mobile, not desktop? I want to add this slider http://excolo.github.io/Excolo-Sl

Is there a js that can do this? I do not want to 'display: none', bc that will slow down the site. the excolo slider is on jquery, and I'm not sure how to modify it to only load on mobile. Is there a js/jquery to do this?

Here's a stackoverflow thread on it:

Probably you've got to choose the best option based on what 'mobile' means in the context of your site (screen size or type of human interface).
