The jQuery browser options was deprecated earlier and removed in 1 9 release along with a lot of other deprecated items like  live   For projects and external libraries which want to upgrade to 1 9 but still want to support these features jQuery have release a migration plugin for the time being   If you need backward compatibility you can use migration plugin

Update  Complete answer overhaul for new plugin    The following plugin has been tested in all major browsers  It makes traditional use of userAgent string to re-equip jQuery browser only if you re using jQuery version 1 9 or Greater   It has the traditional jQuery browser msie type properties as well as a few new ones  including a  mobile property to help decide if user is on a mobile device   Note  This is not a suitable replacement for feature testing  If you expect to support a specific feature on a specific device  it s still best to use traditional feature testing   x000D   x000D      jQuery browser x000D      author J D  McKinstry  2014  x000D      description Made to replicate older jQuery browser command in jQuery versions 1 9  x000D      see http   jsfiddle net SpYk3 wsqfbe4s  x000D     x000D      extends jQuery x000D      namespace jQuery browser x000D      example jQuery browser browser     browserNameInLowerCase  x000D      example jQuery browser version x000D      example jQuery browser mobile  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser  browserNameInLowerCase   x000D      example jQuery browser chrome  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser safari  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser opera  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser msie  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser mozilla  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser webkit  returns BOOLEAN x000D      example jQuery browser ua  returns navigator userAgent String x000D      x000D     function    var a   fn jquery split      b for b in a a b  parseInt a b   if    browser amp  amp  1 lt a 0   9 lt  a 1    a  browser void 0 version void 0 mobile  1  navigator amp  amp navigator userAgent amp  amp  a ua navigator userAgent a webkit  WebKit i test a ua  a browserArray  MSIE Chrome Opera Kindle Silk BlackBerry PlayBook Android Safari Mozilla Nokia  split       Sony      i test a ua  a mobile  Sony   RIM Tablet i test a ua  a mobile  RIM Tablet   BlackBerry i test a ua  a mobile  BlackBerry   iPhone i test a ua   x000D  a mobile  iPhone   iPad i test a ua  a mobile  iPad   iPod i test a ua  a mobile  iPod   Opera Mini i test a ua  a mobile  Opera Mini   IEMobile i test a ua  a mobile  IEMobile   BB 0-9  1    Touch i test a ua  a mobile  BlackBerry   Nokia i test a ua  a mobile  Nokia   Android i test a ua  amp  amp  a mobile  Android    MSIE Trident i test a ua   a browser  MSIE  a version  MSIE i test navigator userAgent  amp  amp 0 lt parseFloat a ua split  MSIE   1  match   0-9    1     0   parseFloat a ua split  MSIE   1  match   0-9    1     0    x000D   Edge   Trident i test a ua  amp  amp  rv   0-9  1     0-9  0     test a ua  amp  amp  a version parseFloat a ua match  rv   0-9  1     0-9  0      1  match   0-9    1     0      Chrome  test a ua   a browser  Chrome  a version parseFloat a ua split  Chrome    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0     Opera  test a ua   a browser  Opera  a version parseFloat a ua split  Version    1  match   0-9    1     0     Kindle Silk KFTT KFOT KFJWA KFJWI KFSOWI KFTHWA KFTHWI KFAPWA KFAPWI i test a ua   a mobile  Kindle   x000D   Silk i test a ua   a browser  Silk  a version parseFloat a ua split  Silk    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0     Kindle i test a ua  amp  amp  Version i test a ua  amp  amp  a browser  Kindle  a version parseFloat a ua split  Version    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0      BlackBerry  test a ua   a browser  BlackBerry  a version parseFloat a ua split      1  match   0-9    1     0     PlayBook  test a ua   a browser  PlayBook  a version parseFloat a ua split  Version    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0     x000D   BB 0-9  1    Touch  test a ua   a browser  Blackberry  a version parseFloat a ua split  Version    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0     Android  test a ua   a browser  Android  a version parseFloat a ua split  Version    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0     Safari  test a ua   a browser  Safari  a version parseFloat a ua split  Version    1  split  Safari   0  match   0-9    1     0     Firefox  test a ua   a browser  Mozilla  a version parseFloat a ua split  Firefox    1  match   0-9    1     0     x000D   Nokia  test a ua  amp  amp  a browser  Nokia  a version parseFloat a ua split  Browser   1  match   0-9    1     0     if a browser for var c in a browserArray a a browserArray c  toLowerCase    a browser  a browserArray c    extend  0   browser    a     jQuery   x000D     -

Include jQuery migration plugin along with your jQuery library

User · Answer

Instead of having the whole migration script added  you could simply add the following  extracted from the migration script     uaMatch   function  ua         ua   ua toLowerCase         var match     chrome         w      exec  ua                webkit         w      exec  ua                opera      version          w      exec  ua                msie     w      exec  ua              ua indexOf  compatible    lt  0  amp  amp    mozilla        rv    w        exec  ua                       return           browser  match  1                  version  match  2       0              and then use it like so    uaMatch navigator userAgent

I had this problem as well  We were using two versions of Jquery  1 11 3 and 1 8 3   one of which was causing this issue  I found a lightbox me js release that worked on both versions   http   buckwilson me lightboxme   It was just an easy replacement of an old file
