Re: [PHP] User's Screen Resolution Size
Use javascript to get the screen resolution and pass it back to your php script thru a hidden form field or some other means.

Use javascript to get the screen resolution and pass it back to your php script thru a hidden form field or some other means. And awhile back someone used this as an example for passing Javascript information into PHP. The example passes in screen width and height: http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.html.php#faq.html.javascript-variable Regards, Philip -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] User's Screen Resolution Size
Vernon, If you ONLY wanted to know how to deal with JavaScript variables in PHP, then perhaps you should have limited your question to just that. Your question asked about screen resolutions, which is totally a discussion based around JavaScript. If you wanted to know about JavaScript and PHP, you should have asked: I have a JavaScript variable containing my user's screen width -- how to I use this variable within PHP? I what to be able to set a variable based on user's screen resolution. is open to interpretation, but MY interpretation was that you wanted PHP to determine the resolution, which can't be done. This is not a personal attack on you, but I'm sure if you ask exactly what you need to know, and do a little research first, you'll get well formed, non-attacking answers from the group mind :) Justin on 19/06/03 11:47 AM, Vernon ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: Not for nothing, but every time I post to this group I get treated poorly.

Re: [PHP] User's Screen Resolution Size
Missing the point all tighter. The point now is merely that courtesy goes a long way. Why some one needs to respond in such a fashion is beyond me. I think it's pretty simple, if I'm posting to a php group, then obviously I'm using php. Also very simple, yet again, is if you don't want to waste your time responding then why do you? Some one else answered with a good response. I do my home work. I Google but don't always know how to phrase the question in Google, forgive me! But when I ask a human being, more than likely they know what I'm asking and as in this case I got my answer. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I have no idea where you folks have gotten the idea that asking how to get Javascript to interact with PHP would be particularly off-topic here. Were it the vile transgression this thread has made it out to be, we probably wouldn't have included the answer in the FAQ. It wouldn't be all that off-topic on a Javascript list either, but you'd still have a bunch of guys jumping up and yelling 'Ask on a PHP list, you loser', without actually providing any useful information.
