Browser detect

Copy this script into your JavaScript files. It works immediately, and you can query three properties of the BrowserDetect object:

• Browser name: BrowserDetect.browser
• Browser version: BrowserDetect.version
• OS name: BrowserDetect.OS

var BrowserDetect = {
 init: function () {
  this.browser = this.searchString(this.dataBrowser) || "An unknown browser";
  this.version = this.searchVersion(navigator.userAgent)
   || this.searchVersion(navigator.appVersion)
   || "an unknown version";
  this.OS = this.searchString(this.dataOS) || "an unknown OS";
 },
 searchString: function (data) {
  for (var i=0;i
   var dataString = data[i].string;
   var dataProp = data[i].prop;
   this.versionSearchString = data[i].versionSearch || data[i].identity;
   if (dataString) {
    if (dataString.indexOf(data[i].subString) != -1)
     return data[i].identity;
   }
   else if (dataProp)
    return data[i].identity;
  }
 },
 searchVersion: function (dataString) {
  var index = dataString.indexOf(this.versionSearchString);
  if (index == -1) return;
  return parseFloat(dataString.substring(index+this.versionSearchString.length+1));
 },
