    <p>You can use <code>navigator.platform</code> also:</p> <pre><code>var isXP = /NT 5.1/.test(navigator.platform) </code></pre> <p>quirksmode.org has a great class you can use to detect the browser platform <a href="http://www.quirksmode.org/js/detect.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> (pasted below).</p> <p>I have used similar methods to conditonally include CSS on Mac platforms, as fonts can be quite different on the Mac and even break layouts with their size and spacing difference. I did it because it was <em>very late in the project</em> and we need a band-aid. I'm a fan of just letting different sites look different in different browsers, as long as they remain functional and attractive. For example, I implement rounded corners using CSS only, and therefore they don't show in IE. I think this is acceptable, but some may not (have a look at <a href="http://www.quoterobot.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">quoterobot.com</a> for an example - not my work by the way!)</p> <pre><code>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&lt;data.length;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)); }, dataBrowser: [ { string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "Chrome", identity: "Chrome" }, { string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "OmniWeb", versionSearch: "OmniWeb/", identity: "OmniWeb" }, { string: navigator.vendor, subString: "Apple", identity: "Safari", versionSearch: "Version" }, { prop: window.opera, identity: "Opera" }, { string: navigator.vendor, subString: "iCab", identity: "iCab" }, { string: navigator.vendor, subString: "KDE", identity: "Konqueror" }, { string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "Firefox", identity: "Firefox" }, { string: navigator.vendor, subString: "Camino", identity: "Camino" }, { // for newer Netscapes (6+) string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "Netscape", identity: "Netscape" }, { string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "MSIE", identity: "Explorer", versionSearch: "MSIE" }, { string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "Gecko", identity: "Mozilla", versionSearch: "rv" }, { // for older Netscapes (4-) string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "Mozilla", identity: "Netscape", versionSearch: "Mozilla" } ], dataOS : [ { string: navigator.platform, subString: "Win", identity: "Windows" }, { string: navigator.platform, subString: "Mac", identity: "Mac" }, { string: navigator.userAgent, subString: "iPhone", identity: "iPhone/iPod" }, { string: navigator.platform, subString: "Linux", identity: "Linux" } ] }; BrowserDetect.init(); </code></pre>
