Get rid of FormData.entries() in IE11

I need to get rid or skip FormData.entries() in IE11. I have the code to check for IE 11 from here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/22242528/1824579

        var formData = new FormData();

        ...

        if (!navigator.appVersion.indexOf('Trident/') > -1) { //is 29 in IE; -1 in Chrome
            for (var pair of formData.entries()) { //error in IE11
                ...
            }
        }

So all I want to achieve is, that if the Browser is IE11 it should skip this section. By now I am not able to achieve this. In the console i only get this error shown up: SCRIPT1004: Expected ';' Index(1094, 31) which is exactly after the word pair in this line: for (var pair of formData.entries()) {

I don't know why IE11 is coming so far, because a log or the result of navigator.appVersion.indexOf('Trident/') is 29 in IE11.

for...of is not supported in IE11. This is a syntax-level issue that can't be solved by feature detection. Your best bet is to transpile your source code with something like Babel, targeting IE11.

The issue might be with using the logical NOT operator. Checking "indexOf > -1" should do the trick or you may need to use an extra set of brackets:

if (!(navigator.appVersion.indexOf('Trident/') > -1))
