Detecting Microsoft's edge or spartan with javascript

Question

Is the user agent for Edge or Spartan browsers known already? Can anyone tell me how to detect this browser and diferentiate it from IE in advance of its release?

Answer 1

A simple google search found me the answer you are looking for: http://forum.piwik.org/read.php?3,125732

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/39.0.2171.71 Safari/537.36 Edge/12.0

Therefore you should match: "Edge\/\d+"
