  getBrowserVersion(){
      var userAgent= navigator.userAgent, tem, 
      matchTest= userAgent.match(/(opera|chrome|safari|firefox|msie|trident(?=\/))\/?\s*(\d+)/i) || [];
      if(/trident/i.test(matchTest[1])){
          tem=  /\brv[ :]+(\d+)/g.exec(userAgent) || [];
          return 'IE '+(tem[1] || '');
      }
      if(matchTest[1]=== 'Chrome'){
          tem= userAgent.match(/\b(OPR|Edge)\/(\d+)/);
          if(tem!= null) return tem.slice(1).join(' ').replace('OPR', 'Opera');
      }
      matchTest= matchTest[2]? [matchTest[1], matchTest[2]]: [navigator.appName, navigator.appVersion, '-?'];
      if((tem= userAgent.match(/version\/(\d+)/i))!= null) matchTest.splice(1, 1, tem[1]);
      return matchTest.join(' ');
  }
}
