How to detect IE7 and IE8 using jQuery.support

Question

How can I detect IE 7 and IE 8 using jQuery.support properties?

Is it possible to detect the browser versions using jQuery.support or just those blah blah blah brows

Answer 1

Be careful with the following because it also includes IE10:

if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version.substr(0,1)<7) {
//

better use:

if ($.browser.msie && parseInt($.browser.version,10)<7) {
//
