Detecting the browser width ?

Hello !
I've searched in all the framework but I couldn't find a method which detects and returns the screen resolution (browser height & width). As there is a method to detect the browser type (NS, IE, etc.), I assumed there was the same for the browser dimensions.
Is there one ?

You can retrieve the User-Agent header value in your servlets/JSP by invoking:
request.getHeader("user-agent");More info on this API:

  • How to detect the Acrobat Browser Plug-in version installed on a users system for non-IE browsers?

    How to detect the *Acrobat Browser Plug-in version* installed on a users system, on Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc?
    Or one script for detecting Plug-in version for major browsers. Need full example code.

    Wrote an article on this with code samples (Javascript + HTML) - basically there are differences between IE and other browsers. Chrome natively comes with the Chrome PDF Viewer so I've incorporated that in my detection script.
    The script detects the browser type, and the installed acrobat version...

  • Flash method to detect the user browser version.

    Hello, I found this property in Flash: System.capabilities.
    You can retreive some information about the user, but i did
    not find how i can detect
    what kind of browser they use to view the flash.
    example:
    trace(System.capabilities.os); // output is the current
    Operating system.. in my case "Windows XP"
    Does anyone know how to detect the browser and the version of
    it?
    Regards,
    Michea.

    I fully agree with you : it SHOULD but... it doesn't!
    Safari is the only browser with which it doesn't work...
    I tested it with IE, Netscape, Firefox and Opera.
    Do you run Safari on Mac OS X? so you could be able to test
    it...
    I put the code to get the values in the very first frame of
    the movie and it is on an "open" layer i.e. it is available from
    any frame of the movie.
    Any idea to "force" the script to work for Safari?
    For the Flash Tracer, I think the problem is Mac related...
    Anyway, thanks for your time!

  • What's the point of browser width when elements will still show up outside of it in a browser window?

    I'm working on my first website and I'm so incredibly frustrated with browser width parameters.
    Don't judge it yet, but notice that some of the elements will gladly go outside of the browser width... (such as the rock on the right under "portfolio")
    http://timdodddummytest.businesscatalyst.com/index.html#top
    So I'm struggling with the concept of browser width if things can just go beyond it. How do I hide it behind the browser width so to speak?
    Also, what if I wanted this whole site to just be the width of the screen so it looks great on a full screen 27" or something and not just 960 pixels wide? I do have it set for HiDpi but it still only takes up the center third of a larger monitor...
    Any help would be great! Thanks!

    Regarding the rock on the right, you could add a black frame above the rock to act as a mask.
    Regarding full width, you can have your images "scale to fill" under the fitting options when importing an image in a frame.
    The only problem with that is the image will increase in size based on the browser width, and based on your design I don't think you want your images scaling up to much based on the parallax scroll layering you have happening. This is where testing is involved to see what it would look like scaled up and down. (see attached link)
    Not sure if I would design a site based on a specific screen size, it's a bit safer to go with a smaller width to accommodate multiple screen sizes.
    The link below is a way  to see how your site will be viewed on multiple screen resolutions.

    Hope this helps... Nice site by the way...

  • Scale website to fit browser width

    Hi I'm new to Muse.
    There is something i have been trying to do, but can't make it work.
    I know about the possibility of full screen and 100% width slideshows. But that is not exactly it.
    What I can't figure out is how to make a website that fits and scales with the browser width (scalable). Is that possible in Muse?
    Something like this. I have found this as a reference, perhaps it can help explain what I mean.

    What you are looking for is called 'Responsive' Design. This is not currently an option in Muse however you can easily create tablet and phone versions of your site.

  • How do I set elements so they adjust according to browser width

    Hi Everyone
    I'm tryingto to make images/graphic elements on my website adjust to the browser width and always be centralised like this website http://pixelblue.ca
    Anyone know how to do this?
    Thanks
    Chris

    That is correct. Currently Muse allows you to create 100% browser width items with Rectangles & Text Frames.
    Muse Can :
    - have 100% browser width colored strip (using Rectangle)
    - have 100% browser width text (using Text Frame)
    - have 100% browser width image (using Rectangle & setting fill to image and setting fitting to Scale to Fill)
    NOTE : the key to this is to Snap it to the Browser Edge.
    select your Rectangle or Text Frame
    click the left edge or your Rectangle or Text Frame
    drag it out to the edge of your Browser Fill area on your design surface
    make sure you see the red line at the edge of your Browser Fill area to indicate you've snapped it to the edge
    do this for the right edge of your Rectangle or Text Frame
    you need to do this with both your left & right edge to make it 100% browser width
    Once you've done the above - preview your page.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why are my images scrolling from outside the Page width?

    Why are my images scrolling from outside the Page width? I am positive i has all the settings correct, to have an image parallax scroll from the edge of the page into the page and out again. But the images are flying in from the browser width - not the page width. This is not the effect I am after.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this? Given the key position is only linked to the height, I can't for the life of me work out how to ensure the images start moving from a certain position onthe left and right of the page.
    Thanks

    I think the effect you are seeing is a result of how the lineHeight is set up. By default, the lineHeight will be calculated as 120% of the size of the largest thing on the line -- in your case, this is the inline graphic. This is designed to leave space between the line before and the line with the graphic. So it is taking the height of the graphic, multiplying by 120%, and making this the distance between the previous line and the line with the graphic. So the bigger the graphic, the bigger the space above the graphic. Normally this works well with text, but in this case you may want to get closer to "set solid". You can do this by setting the lineHeight to 100%. Or you may wish to leave a couple of percent for the descenders of the previous line. Or, another alternative that may work well for you if you really know exactly where you want the line set, you could measure the graphic, add on the number of extra pixels to leave for the descenders, and make the lineHeight a constant. So you could do something like this:
    <img lineHeight="104%" height="411"/>
    or this:
    <img lineHeight="423" height="411"/>
    Obviously you would still need to specify the source and any other parameters you want on the image.
    Note that if you are trying to fit a 200 pixel high graphic into a 200 pixel high container, you will hit the same problem -- in order to fit the graphic, the container will have to be slightly bigger than the graphic in order to fit the descenders on the last line. This is true even if the last line contains only the graphic, and no descenders (or text) at all.
    Hope this helps,

    Hello,
    Are you talking about a rectangle. You can do it by using "100% width" button provided in muse.
    select the rectangle and click on 100% button this will fit the rectangle to the browser width.
    Please let me know if you are taking about something else.

  • 100% browser width in slideshow widget.

    Hi,
    Is there any way that I can have a slideshow of images at 100% of the browser width?
    I tried to extend the borders of the slideshow to the grey area, but this does not work. That said,  white space on each side of the browser appears (see below)
    Please somone help me!!!
    K.

    Hello,
    I would like to inform you that 100% browser width does not work for Images. It is basically for Rectangles and text boxes.
    As you are using images slideshow, I am afraid it might not work for you. A similar feature request is already logged here : http://forums.adobe.com/ideas/2108#comment-5612
    I would suggest you to vote for it and add your valuable comments to it.

  • Why isn't this box not resizing to browser width?

    my site is here: Home
    and a pic of the site:
    Why is that bottom gradation not spreading across the browser width? The top gradation spreads. The bottom dark blue box spread, but not the bottom gradation. I have it at 100% width, as I do with the other two that do spread. Perplexed.

    I experimented more with it. The lower gradation is a copy of the upper one then rotated 180 degrees. For whatever reason that copy wouldn't resize horizontally. So I deleted it and added a new box and filled it with my gradation and it worked.

  • Secure online account number does not autofill because it does not detect this browser.

    With version 3.6.xx, the "Secure Online Account Number" by a credit card can detect the browser when you click on "autofill" information. This no longer worked on this version (v.10) of Firefox. I understand that there may be security or other settings to version 10 browser so that it can be detected by the "autofill".

    my online number never ever appears as it should and i am sick of it  i want it fixed but there is no customer service and no email this really stinks and i am thinking of going to google because I cant do anything to fix it.    Does anyone know if I can make outgoing calls if I only have my skype online number?  now I have that and another sub sription and i think / hope i dont need them both after all i had the unlimited  talk one before i saw the online.  thanks for any help

  • I want to adjust the column width of "From", "Subject" and "Date". in the AT&T email within Firefox browser

    My computer runs under Windows Vista Home Premium, and Firefox browser 3.6.13. Within the Firefox browser, it shows an AT&T email window (www.sbc.yahoo.com). There are several columns such as subject, date, etc. I was able to adjust such column width before. Now I cannot do it. (Also I can adjust column width if I run in the Internet Explorer. I have another computer running Window 7 professional, same set up with Fire Fox and AT&T email, I am able to adjust the column width so I can show the full subject line.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    You can also try to set the pref layout.frames.force_resizability to true on the about:config page.

  • How can i expand a Composition to the full width of the browser?

    I want to have a slideshow on the background of my site in the full browser window so i used the blank composition and added photos, I originally made it close to 2000 pixels wide and then I moved back the selection box to the browser line but for some reason it doesn't expand to the width of the browser as it would it a photo. Can someone please help?

    I think you are confused by the question
    THough muse face book answered me with a link to a work around that is not a fix to a very real bug in bot compositions widget and accordion
    Just thought I would put a note here.
    I found the id number in Inspector and targeted it by adding <style>my css</style> to the metadata head of the page:
    Page Properties
    Metadata
    HTML for <head>
    I was then able to center the text frame :-)
    on my site its not there for about 3 days start counting lol and if you want my working files I will sell em to you for good price as long as you strip out my content and change design 
    when I am done I will post

  • How can i detect the version of the browser in applet

    i wanto detect the version of the browser in applet
    can you help me?

    Hi glovebx!
    Currently there isn't way via java applets since the nearest method is System.getProperty(String key)
    and there isn't a proper key allowed to browser version/name.
    Try to get this browser property via javascript then interact with applet using package netscape.javascript.JSObject.
    Best Regards.
