Yeah, I know, but if I use CGI then I have to pass variables in the URL, and
I was trying to avoid that.
Thanks,
V

Capturing a var from JavaScript

2009-10-18 Thread Victor Subervi 
Hi;
I have the following code:

#!/usr/bin/python

def getResolution():
  print 'Content-Type: text/html\n'
  print '''
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd'>




var winX = screen.width;
var winY = screen.height;
'''
  x = eval('document.write(winX)')
#document.write('Your screen resolution is ' + winX + ' x ' + winY + ',
which is below the recommended size for this application. If possible,
please reset your screen resolution to 800 x 600 or higher. Thank you!');
  print '''

'''
  print x
  print '''


'''

getResolution()


It doesn't work. What I want is to capture winX and winY and use them in
python. How?
TIA,
Victor
