Hi all

I am trying to read all the navigator object elements

1. Using the navigator.length returns undefined, cant use for loop;

2.Using and array of known elements like  
var a = Array("appCodeName","appName","appVersion");
I seem to miss something to get it combined like navigator.a[i]

Anyone can help me a bit? Thanks

Why?
It rarely does anything useful.

If you're trying to do browser detection, it's worthless.
If you're trying to do plugin detection, I believe there's a better way 
for that, too, but I'd have to go look it up.

Contrary to popular opinion, the plural of 'anecdote' is

for (var prop in navigator) {
 document.write(
  prop + ' = ' + navigator[prop] +
  ' (' + typeof navigator[prop] + ')' +
  '<br>'
 );
}
