Advanced browser detection script

Anymore, it seems like I’m always mixing in some custom javascript when building out a user interface. Unfortunately, though, not all browsers respond the same way, so it’s important to know which browser is running the scripts in order to accommodate those users. I can’t say that I’ve looked into it that much, but as far as browser detection scripts go, this one is the best I’ve used. What I particularly like about it is its ability to reveal which version (read: IE6 or IE7?) of which browser is being used.

I don’t know when I’ll start ignoring IE6. Life as a web developer would be so much easier. I always say I’m going to, but when it comes time, I can’t walk the walk.
