Penggunaan
Kode eksekusi harus dinyatakan dalam keadaan DOM Content Loaded, atau letakkan saja di area <body>
:
var d = new Detector();
// Jika font dengan nama `Lucida Grande` tidak ada di komputer, tampilkan pesan peringatan
if (!d.detect('Lucida Grande')) {
alert('Lucida Grande is not installed!');
}
