includes() not working in all browsers

If you look at the documentation of includes(), most of the browsers don’t support this property.

You can use widely supported indexOf() after converting the property to string using toString():

if ($(".right-tree").css("background-image").indexOf("stage1") > -1) {
//                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can also use the polyfill from MDN.

if (!String.prototype.includes) {
    String.prototype.includes = function() {
        'use strict';
        return String.prototype.indexOf.apply(this, arguments) !== -1;
    };
}
