PHP runs on the server -- so the answer is no.
Try Javascript.

And then the question is - why?

Not in PHP (it runs on the server), but you can with Javascript.

The response pre-answers your question - because PHP runs on the server.
My "Why" was meant as a response to "capture ... the users screen res".

PHP knows nothing about the browser so you would need to use
Javascript to query the browsers viewport dimensions.
That being said, I may have a screen with its resolution set to
2048x1536 but the browser is resized to 500x300. How are you going to
handle that situation?
Do a google on html + fluid design

Wow, you gotta know this one.
In one old app, I checked that setting because I knew some OLD people who
use 640x480 would be on the site.
In the current one, I'm checking it to see if they're coming at me with a
PDA or Cell Phone.
(I totally gave up on just using the server user agent.)

What does the screen res tell you about the size of the browser window
and its viewport? Exactly nothing.

I don't do any sniffing at all. I write flexible HTML and if I want to
improve the appearance on PDAs (until now it wasn't really necessary),
I could add another stylesheet with media type 'handheld'. For older PDA
browsers I could also add a simple stylesheet switcher just in case they
don't support that media type.
There's almost always a better way than browser or screen res sniffing.

(You're really in tantrum mode today, aintcha?)
For one thing - it tells you that the viewable browser window maxes out at
640x480.

Wow - HTML that looks as good on a big-screen tv as it does on a cell-phone.
You should patent that process. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I have done some research, trying to Clear The Screen in java code.
The first option was the obv:
system.out.print("\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n");
then i heard about this method:
System.out.print((char)27 + "[2J");

Hello All,
I recognize that this question has already brought about some debate
so I am going to ask as a specific question as I can. I am currently
try to create a cross platfrom screen parser in C. I was able to find
C code that grabs the pointer to the array of screen pixels in memory
for the OS X platform:
PixMap pixMap;
GetQDGlobalsScreenBits((BitMap*)&pixMap);

My question is: Is there a generally accepted way to clear the screen
and perhaps move the cursor to a new location (other than newline) for
the next printf in standard c?
What about ANSI control codes? Are those standard across most
platforms? Or is that just for PC/MAC based computers? Anyone know
where I can see a list of ANSI codes?
Please enlighten me, thanks for your time.

Hello,
I've looked through alt.html and this group for an answer to my

However, I found only cranky arguments with, occasionally, bits of

the next people along in the thread.
So I'm afraid to ask this but I need to know!...

Not sure if this is the right place to post this question because it is not specific to html or css and it's more of an opinion question than a technical one so feel free to move it if there is a better place.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
