[Genome] How to find out Alternative Splicing

Dear UCSC Team,

I sorted a list of UCSC KnownGene IDs into groups, groups consisting of
genes with sequences that overlap or are included in each other.
Now I would like to find out for each gene in each group if it is a result
of alternative splicing or another process (alternative promoter,
alternative TSS selection).

In other words, I want to find out if a gene is an alternative splice of
another gene or not.

Can I get this information from the table browser?

I wrote a script which checks for missing exons to detect alt. splicing, but
I'm not too sure if I'm doing it right and would like to counter-check my
results

Thanks for your help,
Anton
