Check if user is using IE

Question

I am calling a function like the one below by click on divs with a certain class.

Is there a way I can check when starting the function if a user is using Internet

You can use the navigator object to detect user-navigator, you don't need jquery for it, the 4 comments below are already included so this snippet works as expected

if (/MSIE (\d+\.\d+);/.test(navigator.userAgent) || navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Trident/") > -1 ){ 
 // Do stuff with Internet-Exploders ... :)
}
