javascript versions and browser versions aren't a direct match-up for
internet explorer since you can upgrade the scripting engine independent of
the browser.  additionally, javascript versions on some platforms didn't
advance at the same rate as other platforms for the same browser.

just so you know, writing javascript based on version is a suicide run.
you're much better off using object and method detection.  that guarantees
that it won't throw errors in future browsers that may or may not support
those objects or methods.

good luck,
