can't hide elements on mobile using modernizr

I was digging around but couldn't find the answer. Does anyone know the classes that Modernizr adds to the html tag? I want to hide a div on mobile devices.

I want to target it via CSS but i can't find the class to target the devices using modernizr

According to the CSS features, HTML5 features, and misc. features that Modernizr detects, there is no mobile feature. I guess that would have to rely on a UserAgent string, which is not a smart idea. The whole point of Modernizr is to detect certain feature sets, which you can use to determine whether or not a feature of yours would work (for example, oh this browser doesn't have inline-svg so don't display this SVG; instead of, oh we think this is IE8 so let's not show this SVG).

I've come across multiple scenarios where my modals (pop ups) don't play nicely on small mobile / touch devices. In that case, I've always done something like this:

<a href="/register">Register</a>

<script>
    $('a').click(function(e) {
        if(!Modernizr.touch) {
            e.preventDefault();
            // show register modal
        }

        // fallback to page
    });
</script>
