   // A short snippet for detecting versions of IE in JavaScript
   // without resorting to user-agent sniffing
   // ----------------------------------------------------------
   // If you're not in IE (or IE version is less than 5) then:
   //     ie === undefined
   // If you're in IE (>=5) then you can determine which version:
   //     ie === 7; // IE7
   // Thus, to detect IE:
   //     if (ie) {}
   // And to detect the version:
   //     ie === 6 // IE6
   //     ie > 7 // IE8, IE9 ...
   //     ie < 9 // Anything less than IE9
