What's the replacement for $.browser

Question

The jQuery document tags $.browser as deprecated. So what's the replacement for it?

Answer 1

Based on jQuery migration plugin , I found this.

jQuery.uaMatch = function( ua ) {     ua = ua.toLowerCase();     var match = /(chrome)[ \/]([\w.]+)/.exec( ua ) ||         /(webkit)[ \/]([\w.]+)/.exec( ua ) ||         /(opera)(?:.*version|)[ \/]([\w.]+)/.exec( ua ) ||         /(msie) ([\w.]+)/.exec( ua ) ||         ua.indexOf("compatible") < 0 && /(mozilla)(?:.*? rv:([\w.]+)|)/.exec( ua ) || [];     return {         browser: match[ 1 ] || "",         version: match[ 2 ] || "0"     }; }; if ( !jQuery.browser ) {     var      matched = jQuery.uaMatch( navigator.userAgent ),     browser = {};     if ( matched.browser ) {         browser[ matched.browser ] = true;         browser.version = matched.version;     }     // Chrome is Webkit, but Webkit is also Safari.     if ( browser.chrome ) {         browser.webkit = true;     } else if ( browser.webkit ) {         browser.safari = true;     }     jQuery.browser = browser; }
