jQuery no longer supports $.browser #5

This was deprecated in 1.3 and removed entirely in 1.9.

Its use in FixedHeader prevents the plugin from working with 1.9. I'd fork and try to fix it but I really am not friends with JS =)

This might be a good place to look for a solution/workaround: http://pupunzi.open-lab.com/2013/01/16/jquery-1-9-is-out-and-browser-has-been-removed-a-fast-workaround/

FixedHeader currently does a check for $.browser before actually using it, so it is perfectly safe the way it is currently implemented. This means that FixedHeader will work with jQuery 1.9 and with older versions and IE6. IE6/7 support will be dropped int he next major version and $.browser removed from FixedHeader completely.
