Collected research
Detecting browsers javascript hacks
A collection of minimal browser-detection expressions that cannot be overwritten by the page, each keyed to an engine quirk: negative indexes on a regex or function for Firefox versions, '\v'=='v' for IE, a regex __proto__ stringifying as // for Safari, and conditional compilation for IE6. Ends with a single chained expression naming any of them.
