Browser Specific Javascript Loading

[andy@tcws]

How do I load a specific js file according to the browser – in this instance for ie8?

Is there some kind of conditional I can do, much like browser specific CSS loading, that would appear in the head of the html?

Thanks in advance.

Like this?:


<!--[if IE 8]>
<script type="text/javascript" src="script8.js">
//Blah
</script>
<![endif]-->

That's great thanks Nile.

So if I need IE8 to load blah1.js and all other browsers to load blah2.js would it need some kind of if/else statement? I'm not really sure of the syntax though.

Cheers. :)

You only have to do this:

<!--[if IE 8]>
Script for Internet Explorer 8
<![endif]-->

<!--[if lt IE 8]><!-->
Script for EITHER Internet Explorer lower_then_8 OR non-IE
<!--<![endif]-->

No actually... You only have to do this:


<!--[if IE 8]>
<script type="text/javascript" src="blah1.js">
//Blah
</script>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if lt IE 8]><!-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="blah2.js">
//Blah
</script>
<!--<![endif]-->

<!--[if IE 8]>
<script type="text/javascript" src="blah1.js">
//Blah
</script>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if lt IE 8]><!-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="blah2.js">
//Blah
</script>
<!--<![endif]-->

... meaning that Nile and I agree.

Thanks guys, that's awesome. Works like a charm :)

Removed the reflection from MooFlow, as it was borked in IE8 and seems to be an outstanding unresolved issue.

Yes, I was saying no the the OP.

Great glad to help!
