How to detect IE when on IE11

12 New Member
As from the IE11 onwards they removed msie from the useragent string, how can we detect we are on the internet explorer from the JavaScript?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

don’t rely on the User Agent string. instead use Feature Detection (if object has property, call object property).

I agree with above poster, you may use jQuery libray like Modernizr ,etc to find out whether a feature is supported by the browser or not.

How can I detect when a link has been clicked but the new page is still in the process of loading? The document.location.href property still displays the current location (understandably) not the one that's about to load. I have a page that reloads every 30 seconds in order to access live data. If a user clicks on a link just prior to the page reloading the reload takes precedence over the link click and this is annoying for the users....

I've got two forms, Form1 and Form2. Form1 opens invisibly when the database opens. From Form1 (or from a regular module or class module accessed by Form1), is there a way to detect when Form2 opens? I'm restricted to only coding in Form1 (or a regular module or class module accessed by Form1). The code can't be in another Form's module, and can't be in the application's startup module fired by the AutoExec macro. That's already being...

I am designing a program that will detect when a computer becomes locked (screen saver comes on/Ctrl+Alt+Del). I am looking to detect that and update a database for a custom Time Tracker program. Much the same way Windows Messanger will update a person's status to Away when their computer locks. Anyone ever come across the code for this? -------------------------------- From: Eric Rupp -----------------------

Hello, I need to trap/detect when a textbox is entered via the tabkey. If the textbox is not empty when entered via the tabkey then set focus to next textbox. To enter that textbox would then require a mouseclick if it already contains text to be edited. I am guessing that I would need to trap for this in the Enter Event of this particular textbox. I tried this in the Enter Event of the Textbox, but...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
