Gallery plugin patch for jQuery 1.9 : )

Hello guys, first off, great work on this. Love it and so happy to not have to use the full Jetpack : )

So just wanted to give you a heads up and others a quick patch. The site I’m using this plugin on uses jQuery 1.9, which resulted in the plugin not working as the plugin currently uses the now deprecated $.browser object for jQuery < 1.9 (lines 137-140):

if ( $.browser.mozilla )
     leftWidth -= 55;
else if ( $.browser.msie )
     leftWidth -= 20;

Not quite sure where WordPress core is in terms of adopting the use of jQuery 1.9, but wanted to throw out how I patched this up. I basically tested for whether $.browser is a valid function (aka if jQuery is < 1.9) and then setup the relevant code to handle both situations so we are gracefully handling both situations:

if( ! $.isFunction( $.browser ) ) {
     var isMozilla = navigator.userAgent.match(/Firefox/i) != null;
     var isMSIE = navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE/i) != null;

     if ( isMozilla )
          leftWidth -= 55;
     else if ( isMSIE )
          leftWidth -= 20;
     leftWidth += 'px';
} else {
     if ( $.browser.mozilla )
          leftWidth -= 55;
     else if ( $.browser.msie )
          leftWidth -= 20;
     leftWidth += 'px';
}

It’s obviously not ideal to alter plugin code, which I realize, I just really wanted to use this and couldn’t find a Github repo for this : ) So by all means, use this as you see fit or when / if it makes sense. Thanks!
