detect's Introduction

#detect.js ###provides the browser & os as a readable string.

About

This script uses the navigator.userAgent string to detect the browser. Since this string is easily altered by a user, detect.js should not be used to alter the behavior of your javascript code. Instead, it should be used for displaying the likely browser information to the user.

Usage

Add detect.js to your page:

<script src="detect.js"></script>

Retrieve the browser, version, & os:

console.log( window.ui.browser );
console.log( window.ui.version );
console.log( window.ui.os );

window.ui

detect.js adds a 'ui' (short for user information) object to the window.

window.ui = {
    browser : 'Firefox',
    version : '6.0.2',
    os : 'Mac OS X 10.7'
}

Which browsers are supported?

Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8, 9, Mobile

detect's Issues

some errors on mobile browsers

I do like your library, but it does not work correctly on the following platforms:

Firefox 16.0.2 on Android 4.0.4 on Motorola Xoom tablet => "version" detection causes exception

stock browser on Android 4.0.4 on Motorola Xoom tablet => "os" is not a string but an array containing one string

Chrome 25.0.1364.86 on iPad 1 tablet => "version" detection causes exception

I'm sorry that I cannot provide more information but I lack the tools and the time to debug code on those platforms.
