Find IE full Browser Window Height And Width (JavaScript)

[fly231]

Hi,

I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me with this.

Is there any way of getting the full width and height of an EI browser window using JavaScript.

IE doesn't return the full Browser width, it only returns the inner display area width and height.

What I need it the Full height and width including the toolbars and scrollbars.

Thanks


For FireFox I use
myWidth = window.innerWidth;
myHeight = window.innerHeight;

For IE
myWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth;
myHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight;

The easy way would be to get the available dimensions of the screen (screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight), set the window size to that, with the knowledge that the browser will go only as big as that, not more (certainly on XP with only one monitor, anyway).

Then get the innerWidth + height, subtract them from the availWidth + height, and you have an immediate delta for the toolbar & furniture width & height that you can add to any innerWidth & height to find the exact outer dimensions of the browser.

Simple

Hope this helps,
Dan

Thanks for the reply Dan.

I thought of the same thing but my problem is the user shouldn't see the window moving.

What I'm trying to achieve here is when I click a button in the web page it will open up a popup (FAQ section)
Then resize the Opener and dock the popup just next to the Opener with the same height.
This popup won't have anytoolbars turned on.

And also resize the popup or the opener window according to the user drag.
