How To Switch Off Javascript Programmatically Only For Internet Explorer 7?

I want to turn off JavaScript using JavaScript (and/or jQuery) code, only if the page is viewed in IE7. How can this be done? Would be grateful for the magic code snippet!

Solution 1:

Use conditional comments.

<![if !(IE 7)]>
    // Script tags here
<![endif]>

Solution 2:

You can check if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version < 8) and not run your code.

Solution 3:

You can´t turn JavaScript off. You can however exclude IE7 by using Downlevel-revealed Conditional Comments.
