Kool,  Does it give you the possible screen size, or just the size of the window at time of log entry

If you use urchin to process your logfiles and you have the UTM installed on your site. (I assume this applies to using google analytics too)  Screen resolution is tracked along with the other client information like browser version.  It's actually quite nice.

The only way to get that information is from client side script.
 
If you want to collect the info into database, have the Jscript call AJAX
the web service

Actually all I want to do is accumulate the information in a database for
reporting.

Witango doesn't receive any information about windows settings at the time
of a request, only what is sent in the header (browser etc...).
 
One solution is to do this:
<script>
if (screen.width == 800) {
document.writeln('<kinda small window html >');
}
else if (screen.width == 640) {
document.writeln('<small window html >');
}
else{
document.writeln('<maybe not small window html>');
}
</script>
 
You can also consider a url redirect like:
 
<script>
if (screen.width != 800) {
document.location =
'http://www.yourDomain.com/yourAppfile?screenWidth=' + screen.width;
}
</script>

Is there a way to determine screen resolution with a witango tag or has
someone written a custom tag for this or is _javascript_ the only way?
