This seems to work:
HTML
HEAD
TITLE Screen/TITLE
SCRIPT LANGUAGE=Javascript
function displayScreenProperties() {
with(document) {
write(Bheight: /B)
writeln(B+(screen.height+BR))
write(Bwidth: /B)
writeln(B+(screen.width+BR))
write(BcolorDepth: /B)
writeln(B+(screen.colorDepth+BR))
}
}
displayScreenProperties()
/SCRIPT
/HEAD
BODY
/BODY
/HTML
I agree it's not purely on-topic, but determining what type(s) of
image(s) you need as your final product is important when using any
design software

This is not stictly on topic for this list but prepare a few different sized
images and then,
if you are not familiar with getting screen and window property information,
try loading this into your browser for getting screen properties - it should
get you going - you might want to join a javascript list to help further:

writeln(B(screen.height+BR)

[Gimp-user] photo resolution
Hello, If I am producing images for the web, is 72 dpi still sufficient across all possible monitors--a little lap top screen to a large screen HDTV? ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

A simple laptop screen starts at about 1024x768 pixels (dots) so a 72DPI picture to cover that entirely would be about 14 inches by 11 inches. You don't want to cover that much in a web page, because there will be some actual page surrounding the image, plus web browser window frames etc. My wife's 19-inch CRT is set to about 2000x1500 pixels, so the answer for that is about double. Anyone using even larger monitors will be more than accustomed to stuff not fitting. One possible/partial answer is to use some JavaScript to read the window's dimensions alter the width height parameters of the IMG tag to scale whatever you provide, so it fits. To get really fancy, provide several different images have your JS select the closest fit scale that.

David Heino wrote: If I am producing images for the web, is 72 dpi still sufficient across all possible monitors--a little lap top screen to a large screen HDTV? DPI has nothing to do with screen resolution. On screen, most images are displayed pixel-for-pixel (unless the application is told to resize the image). Unless you specify the resize in HTML, most (if not all) browsers will display your image pixel-for-pixel. This is why talking about DPI when saving for the web is meaningless. DPI *is* relevant when an image is scanned or printed. It is also sometimes relevant for fonts rendered by your computer. If you tell your system your DPI in regards to font size, it will change the font size to make it easier to view -- but there are 2 problems with that: the fonts might look fuzzy (reasonably easy to fix) and many programs will not display their content correctly because their programmers did not realize that the user might scale their fonts. As far as saving for the web, as others mentioned you should think in pixels. Things to keep in mind: * users with large screens might resize their browser windows to be much smaller * users on dialup (there are still a lot of them) really hate large images * some users might even turn off images while browsing (so please make good use of alt property) Hope this helps ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
