您可以使用jQuery库来检测浏览器版本。

例子:

jQuery.browser.version

然而，这只有在你同时使用jQuery的其他函数时才有意义。对我来说，仅仅为了检测浏览器而添加整个库似乎有点小题大做。

我知道我问这个问题已经晚了，但我想我会在这里抛出我的片段。这里的很多答案都是OK的，而且，正如有人指出的那样，通常最好使用特性检测而不是依赖userAgent字符串。但是，如果您打算走这条路，我已经写了一个完整的代码片段，以及一个替代的jQuery实现来取代被放弃的$.browser。

香草JS

我的第一个代码片段只是向导航器对象添加了四个属性:浏览器、版本、移动设备和webkit。

/** navigator [extended]
 *  Simply extends Browsers navigator Object to include browser name, version number, and mobile type (if available).
 *
 *  @property {String} browser The name of the browser.
 *  @property {Double} version The current Browser version number.
 *  @property {String|Boolean} mobile Will be `false` if is not found to be mobile device. Else, will be best guess Name of Mobile Device (not to be confused with browser name)
 *  @property {Boolean} webkit If is webkit or not.

所有关于web浏览器的信息都包含在navigator对象中。名字和版本都在那里。

var appname = window.navigator.appName;

来源:javascript浏览器检测

var browser = navigator.appName;
var version = navigator.appVersion;

然而，请注意，两者并不一定反映事实。许多浏览器都可以设置为其他浏览器的掩码。例如，你不能总是确定用户是用IE6还是用伪装成IE6的Opera上网。

如果你想要一个返回浏览器和版本的函数，这里是对原始答案的改进:

navigator.browserInfo = 
(
    function()
    {
        var browser = '';
        var version = '';
        var idString = '';

        var ua = navigator.userAgent;
        var tem = [];
        var M = ua.match(/(opera|chrome|safari|firefox|msie|trident(?=\/))\/?\s*(\d+)/i);

        //IE will be identified as 'Trident' and a different version number. The name must be corrected to 'Internet Explorer' and the correct version identified.
        //ie correction
        if(/trident/i.test(M[1]))
        {
            tem = /\brv[ :]+(\d+.?\d*)/g.exec(ua) || [];
            browser = 'Internet Explorer';
            version = tem[1];
        }

        //firefox
        else if(/firefox/i.test(M[1]))
        {
            tem = /\brv[ :]+(\d+.?\d*)/g.exec(ua) || [];
            browser = 'Firefox';
            version = tem[1];
        }

        //safari
        else if(/safari/i.test(M[1]))
        {
            tem = ua.match(/\bVersion\/(\d+.?\d*\s*\w+)/);
            browser = 'Safari';
            version = tem[1];
        }

        //If 'Chrome' is found, it may be another browser. 
        else if(M[1] === 'Chrome')
        {
            //opera
            var temOpr = ua.match(/\b(OPR)\/(\d+.?\d*.?\d*.?\d*)/);
            //edge
            var temEdge = ua.match(/\b(Edge)\/(\d+.?\d*)/);
            //chrome
            var temChrome = ua.match(/\b(Chrome)\/(\d+.?\d*.?\d*.?\d*)/);

            //a genuine 'Chrome' reading will result from ONLY temChrome not being null.
            var genuineChrome = temOpr == null && temEdge == null && temChrome != null;

            if(temOpr != null)
            {
                browser = temOpr[1].replace('OPR', 'Opera');
                version = temOpr[2];
            }

            if(temEdge != null)
            {
                browser = temEdge[1];
                version = temEdge[2];
            }

            if(genuineChrome)
            {
                browser = temChrome[1];
                version = temChrome[2];
            }
        }
        //There will be some odd balls, so if you wish to support those browsers, add functionality to display those browsers as well.

        if(browser == '' || version == '')
        {
            idString = 'We couldn\'t find your browser, but you can still use the site';
        }
        else
        {
            idString = browser + ' version ' + version;
        }

        alert('Your browser is ' + idString);

        //store the type of browser locally
        if(typeof(Storage) !== "undefined")
        {
            //Store
            localStorage.setItem('browser', browser);
            localStorage.setItem('version', version);
        } 
        else
        {
            alert('local storage not available');
        }
    }
)();

这样，它还将结果存储在本地，因此不必每次都执行该检查。

遗憾的是，IE11的导航器中不再有MSIE。

至于为什么你想知道你在使用哪个浏览器，这是因为每个浏览器都有自己的一组错误，你最终实现了浏览器和版本特定的解决方案，或者告诉用户使用不同的浏览器!
