How can i detect that the browser is Safari 5 or higher?

something does not work unless safari 5 and up, so i want to exclude anything other than that.... — timeitquery

Why don't you simply look whether the browser is able to do what you want it to do? — thejh

I think you want to know if Safari is v5 or higher because of some feature.
