RE: Witango-Talk: Setting Witango variables inside of Javascript
Title: Setting Witango variables inside of Javascript Gene, You need to make a form that does a submit on load to return the values back to the server. I attached a _javascript_ that returns the window size that someone posted here a while ago. Now you need to make a form with the 2 fields height, width and a submit button. Put your _javascript_ in to populate the 2 fields and then put an onload event in the body tag to submit the form. It would look something like: [body > I always have to mess around with these things for a while to get them exactly right so they work. I am sure there are others on the list that can give you the correct syntax. This is a method to get values from the client back to the server.

Re: Witango-Talk: Setting Witango variables inside of Javascript
Don't get confused between server side javascript and client side (what you're using to get the resolution) What you need to do is hit the server either with hidden post args in a form or url parameters. the tricky part is doing it without refreshing the page, or popping up a window. Try an IFrame /John Wolf, Gene wrote: I've searched the discussion list and I know this has been asked before, because I believe I've asked it. *laughs* Here's what I would like to do.

Re: Witango-Talk: Setting Witango variables inside of Javascript
Gene, If the TCF is executing the javascript with the script action I'm guessing that you're getting the screen resolution of the server machine... I could also be misunderstanding something in your post below. Follow alan's advise on doing it client side and embeding the results in the hidden form field. /John Wolf, Gene wrote: Hey Alan, thanks for the reply. What I see this doing is that a person logs in.

Or have the user select the resolution from a drop-down list. Some users don't always want to run their windows maximized. Hope this helps.
