Hi Nicholas,
I use code like this to detect container width:
function getWidth() {
return Math.max(document.body.scrollWidth,
document.body.offsetWidth);
};
As for sniffing out the platform, I've had good luck with detecting a
gadget running on GMail with
if (document.referer.search('//mail.google') > -1) {
... do gmail-specific handling
}
As usual, YMMV, but those snippets work for me.
