Previous versions of Notes/Domino let developers use navigator.appName and navigator.appVersion to reveal which Web browser type and version were used being used in Notes/Domino applications. In Notes/Domino 8.0.2, however, these functions no longer give developers what they want.

Domino provides us with the @BrowserInfo function, but this function gives incorrect results for newer Web browser versions. I was looking for a way to program a Web application based on specific browsers. This JavaScript class is easy to use and tested for almost all Web browsers.
