您可以检测到所有Internet Explorer(最近测试的版本12)。

<script>
    var $userAgent = '';
    if(/MSIE/i['test'](navigator['userAgent'])==true||/rv/i['test'](navigator['userAgent'])==true||/Edge/i['test'](navigator['userAgent'])==true){
       $userAgent='ie';
    } else {
       $userAgent='other';
    }

    alert($userAgent);
</script>

请看这里https://jsfiddle.net/v7npeLwe/

你可以简单地这样做:

var isIE = window.document.documentMode ? true : false; // this variable will hold if the current browser is IE

我知道这个问题很老了，但如果有人滚动那么远，他们可以看到简单的答案:)

Angularjs团队是这样做的(v 1.6.5):

var msie, // holds major version number for IE, or NaN if UA is not IE.

// Support: IE 9-11 only
/**
 * documentMode is an IE-only property
 * http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/cc196988(v=vs.85).aspx
 */
msie = window.document.documentMode;

然后有几行代码分散在使用它作为一个数字，如

if (event === 'input' && msie <= 11) return false;

and

if (enabled && msie < 8) {

试着这样做

if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version == 8) {
    //my stuff

}

几年后，Edge浏览器现在使用Chromium作为渲染引擎。 遗憾的是，检查IE 11仍然是一件事。

这里有一个更直接的方法，因为古老版本的IE应该消失了。

if (window.document.documentMode) {
  // Do IE stuff
}

以下是我以前的答案(2014年):

在Edge中，用户代理字符串已更改。

/**
 * detect IEEdge
 * returns version of IE/Edge or false, if browser is not a Microsoft browser
 */
function detectIEEdge() {
    var ua = window.navigator.userAgent;

    var msie = ua.indexOf('MSIE ');
    if (msie > 0) {
        // IE 10 or older => return version number
        return parseInt(ua.substring(msie + 5, ua.indexOf('.', msie)), 10);
    }

    var trident = ua.indexOf('Trident/');
    if (trident > 0) {
        // IE 11 => return version number
        var rv = ua.indexOf('rv:');
        return parseInt(ua.substring(rv + 3, ua.indexOf('.', rv)), 10);
    }

    var edge = ua.indexOf('Edge/');
    if (edge > 0) {
       // Edge => return version number
       return parseInt(ua.substring(edge + 5, ua.indexOf('.', edge)), 10);
    }

    // other browser
    return false;
}

示例用法:

alert('IEEdge ' + detectIEEdge());

我只是想检查一下浏览器是否是IE11或更老的版本，因为它们都是垃圾。

function isCrappyIE() {
    var ua = window.navigator.userAgent;
    var crappyIE = false;
    var msie = ua.indexOf('MSIE ');
    if (msie > 0) {// IE 10 or older => return version number        
        crappyIE = true;
    }
    var trident = ua.indexOf('Trident/');
    if (trident > 0) {// IE 11 => return version number        
        crappyIE = true;
    }
    return crappyIE;
}   

if(!isCrappyIE()){console.table('not a crappy browser);}
