jQuery Check for tablet?

javascript, jquery

Solution

Try to see if perhaps this sheds a light on your question:

What is the best way to detect a mobile device in jQuery?

As the answer to that thread says, I'd suggest to rely on 'feature detection' rather than tablet vs non-tablet (as it may not be as straightforward as one may think) hence --> http://modernizr.com/

Problem

I use a media query to load in a stylesheet (if device is a tablet). I was just wondering how I could check in my javascript if the user is using a tablet, is there a check or should I just check what stylesheet was loaded in?
