I put a refresh tag below the script within conditions. It works, but still not 
ideal. It seems there's no way to avoid the 2nd step either redirect or form 
post.

<cfif Not IsDefined('Session.Screensize.Width')>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var theData= "screenWidth=" + screen.width+ "&screenHeight="+screen.height;
        
    $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "/ajax.cfc?method=myMethod", 
    data: theData, 
        datatype: "json",
    success: function(){}
    });
        </script>
    <meta http-equiv=refresh content="0;URL=test5.cfm">
</cfif>

Test page is:

> <CFIF NOT isDefined("session.screenWidth")>
   
> <CFIF NOT isDefined("url.sh")>
     
> <SCRIPT>
       
> window.location.href += "?sw=" + screen.width + "&sh=" + screen.
> height
     
> </SCRIPT>
   
> <CFELSE>
     
> <CFSET session.screenWidth = url.sw>
     
> <CFSET session.screenheight = url.sh>
   
> </CFIF>
> </CFIF>
> <CFDUMP var="#session#">
> 
> You could also work out a POST method version using a FORM to transmit 
> the values and the submit() function to redirect.
