How about IE 11 since the user agent has been changed?
There is no MSIE and it shows something like Gecko.
How to detect whether its IE 11?
Check this link for IE11
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/browscap/40-5XTokTjM/CoS_BbmUoeYJ
This reports IE11 as IE6 whether compatibility view is engaged or not.
If you just wanting to check if you are being run in compatibility mode you can use this script.
// Create new ieUserAgent object
var ieUserAgent = {
init: function () {
// Get the user agent string
var ua = navigator.userAgent;
this.compatibilityMode = false;
// alert (ua);
if(ua.indexOf("MSIE") == -1){
this.version = 0;
return 0;
}
if(ua.indexOf("compatible") == -1){
this.compatibilityMode = false;
return 0;
}else{
this.compatibilityMode = true;
return 0;
}
}
};
// Initialize the ieUserAgent object
ieUserAgent.init();
/**
* Check if client is IE and in compatibility view
*
* @returns {boolean}
*/
function isIECompatibilityMode() {
var ua = navigator.userAgent;
if (ua.indexOf("MSIE") == -1) {
return false;
}
return (ua.indexOf("compatible") != -1);
}
Hi Jason,
Actually I am looking out for how to add site URL/domain in IE compatibility Mode through JavaScript.
Or anyway to automate the process instead of manually adding URL entry in IE Compatibility View Settings.
~Thanks!
