Description

The Navigator object contains properties that describe the web browser in use. You can use its properties to perform platform-specific customization. The name of this object obviously refers to the Netscape Navigator browser, but other browsers that implement JavaScript will support this object as well.

There is only a single instance of the Navigator object, which you can reference through the navigator property of any Window object. Because of the implicit window reference, you can always refer to the Navigator object simply as navigator.
