[PHP] Get page height?

2001-05-16 Thread DRN

Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to get the page height
using php?

The reason I would like to do this is so that I can include a link to
the top of the page if the page is long enough, but not to display it
for very short pages (where it would not be needed:)

Cheers for your help,
Donald

the screen dimensions are not sent to the server, a sniffer is a handy thing, you will 
be able to see all the headers, and see that one is not in there. plus to compound the 
fact, javascript might be able to get this data (cant confirm) but javascript will 
only know what the dimensions are, after the page is loaded. you could get the data 
from javascript and use a header_redirect to give php that data. sorry I dont have a 
code snippit.

This solution is sloppy but in theory it works.  I would lean towards using an
fopen() to read the bytes of the page on the server, then based on bytes have
your script decide what to do.

JavaScript (AFAIK) can only tell the dimensions of the window/frame the page is
being drawn in.
