Sniffing user agent is not a “safe” solution.
I prefer the Dean Edwards one:
var isMSIE = /*@cc_on!@*/false;
(More here: http://dean.edwards.name/weblog/2007/03/sniff/ )
Conditional compilation was removed in IE11
Or simply use what has already been built and not rewrite it:
if ($.browser.ie) { … }
$.browser is no longer supported by JQuery
using conditional comments is a lot easier, is’nt it?
The problem with conditional comments is that IE 10 no longer supports them
but conditional comments is not working in ie 10
this code does not work for IE11, can you modify the MSIE to detect IE11 also, Please help.
You can try this:
Thanks! document.documentMode works great!! :)
Np! :)
Nice work Nicola. I didn’t know this was a specific IE property: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_doc_documentmode.asp
can you provide it for css?
