internet explorer - Disabling Javascript file if browsing with IE -

so 1 of scripts have in website mouse hover script changes color , image. not behaving in ie disable script if user using ie.

how can that?

example of want:

//if ie not detected(any other browser detected)      <script type="text/javascript" src="js/mousehover.js"></script>  //else (ie detected)      //do nothing / don't upload script 

it's better debug script, @ least ie8+.

if want avoid loading script on ie, though, believe it's browser activexobject, simplest thing put guard around code in mousehover.js:

if (typeof activexobject !== "undefined") {     // ie, don't mouse hover stuff } 

or if it's important not download js on ie, can in 2 ways:

<script> (function() {     if (typeof activexobject === "undefined") {         var s = document.createelement('script');         s.src = "js/mousehover.js";         document.documentelement.appendchild(s);     } })(); </script> 

that load script on non-ie. note subsequent scripts have not wait script load, if there dependencies, you'll need watch them.

or using document.write:

<script> if (typeof activexobject === "undefined") {     document.write('<scr' + 'ipt src="js/mousehover.js"></scr' + 'ipt>'); } </script> 

...which maintain load order, can't used in xhtml.
