Getting Window Browser Size

[chaddolan]

Hello everyone, Is there a way to get the size of the browser window with javascript? Thanks, Chad

Here are a couple of functions to get the client area: function clientHeight() { var myHeight = 0; if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) { //Non-IE myHeight = window.innerHeight; } else if( document.documentElement && ( document.documentElement.clientWidth || document.documentElement.clientHeight ) ) { //IE 6+ in 'standards compliant mode' myHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight; } else if( document.body && ( document.body.clientWidth || document.body.clientHeight ) ) { //IE 4 compatible myHeight = document.body.clientHeight; } return myHeight; } function clientWidth() { var myWidth = 0; if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) { //Non-IE myWidth = window.innerWidth; } else if( document.documentElement && ( document.documentElement.clientWidth || document.documentElement.clientWidth ) ) { //IE 6+ in 'standards compliant mode' myWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth; } else if( document.body && ( document.body.clientWidth || document.body.clientWidth ) ) { //IE 4 compatible myWidth = document.body.clientWidth; } return myWidth; } They seem to work in IE and FF. Can't remember where I got these from, somewhere on google is my bet...

Try this: windowWidth = window.screen.width;
