How do I read or set the browser's window size?
1 comments. Current rating:

As often, Netscape and Internet Explorer use different properties to store the window size. After determining the browser type, the code uses either Netscape's innerHeight and innerWidth properties or IE's resizeto() function.
Other usefule functions available in IE are
self.resizeBy(x, y)
self.moveTo(x, y)
self.moveBy(x, y)
Note that in order to read the size related properties in Internet Explorer, this javascript has to be placed behind the tag.

<script>
if (window.outerHeight) {
// Netscape code
oH = window.outerHeight;
oW = window.outerWidth;
alert("Height: " + oH + "px Width: " + oW + "px");
// resize to 500 x 400
window.outerHeight = 500;
window.outerWidth = 400;
}
else {
// Internet Explorer
// clientWidth/Height is inner window size
// (subtract the pixels used by scroll bar, menu etc)
iW = document.body.clientWidth;
iH = document.body.clientHeight;
alert("Inner Width: " + iW + "px Inner Height:" + iH);
self.resizeTo(500,400);
}
</script>
