jQuery Browser

Since jQuery's native browser detection system was removed from its core in v1.9.1, this plugin is a simple implementation of that same codebase, but as a plugin.

This will allow interested developers to have access to those features, while keeping the jQuery library core to a minimum.

Usage instructions are included with the download package.
