available width & height 1

[jtaal]

How do i find out the available width and height of a browser window. I checked out some docs and it said window.innerHeight and window.innerWidth. But:
when i do

alert (window.innerHeight);

using IE 6.0 it says 'undefined' while using Mozilla 1.6 it gives me a reasonable 698...
i also checked out document.body.clientHeight, but when i use a different doctype (loose or strict) it gives larger values, because my doc is larger than just one page. So i couldnt us that...

Any help?

basically you need code for each type of browser (NN IE Mozilla etc) not all respond to js the same way or use the same js attributes...

google test for browser and screen width and height to get some code samples you can adapt (or steal)

this is what i finally found

var x,y;
if (self.innerHeight) // all except Explorer
{
	x = self.innerWidth;
	y = self.innerHeight;
}
else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.clientHeight)
	// Explorer 6 Strict Mode
{
	x = document.documentElement.clientWidth;
	y = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
}
else if (document.body) // other Explorers
{
	x = document.body.clientWidth;
	y = document.body.clientHeight;
}
