Re: [PHP] Window/Page/Browser/Screen width

2002-08-28 Thread DL Neil

Hi Rick

Check out list archives for last week (and the week before...) keyword:
resolution.

Also check out HTML, which will cheerfully slap text and graphics together
an adapt to local peculiarities.

Regards,
=dn


 I've seen similar questions in archives so sorry if I'm asking the same
thing
 again!

 Is it possible, using php, to get the screen, page, or window width?

 My aim would be to have a set of picture thumbnails, and give the html the
best
 number of columns depending on the size of the display.

 I'd rather not use java, because many people have it turned off (even
though I
 wouldn't be exploiting it!)

 Cheers,
 --Rick

Hi Rick,

The important thing to remember is that PHP (as any other similar language)
is a server-side scripting language. It won't help you getting your client
details apart of those sent in HTTP headers.
You should rather consider looking into JavaScript capabilities to
accomplish your task.

HTH, Stas
