Also note that you really shouldn't switch your behavior on browser version
if you can help it. You should try and detect if the browser supports a
feature - 1.3 does some of this, for example:
Features: {
xpath: !!(document.evaluate),
air: !!(window.runtime),
query: !!(document.querySelector),
json: !!(window.JSON)
},
If there's a feature you want to use (html 5 stuff) you should devise a test
that determines if that feature is available, regardless of the browser type
or version. That's not always possible, but most of the time it is.
