You can do this. do "result = navigator.appName" in browser
at which point the result will contain "Microsoft Internet Explorer" if thats the browser in use. result = navigator.userAgent returns.. ; Trident/5.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E) for the version of IE i'm using. there is also "result = navigator appVersion which for me returns.. 5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E) Didn't test with firefox, didn't test with chrome since the plugin doesn't work there for me. I'm sure there are quite a few other useful items that can be queried this way.
