    Posted: 16 June 2003 at 8:55am

I'm creating a page that would show a lot of thumbnails on a table. The problem is that I'm creating a 5x5 table's photo and it's too wide if the resolution is 800x600. I mean, the 5-thumbnails row is too wide and the horizontal scrollbar appears.

The ASP's code has these values (number of thb by column and row) as variables, so it would be easy to fix this. The question is... how do I get the screen resolution to decide how many thumbnails should be shown in each row?

You can use Browserhawk (www.cyscape.com) to detect the screen resolution serverside or theres some javascripts to do it client side (www.dynamicdrive.com).

Hope that helps, Mart

3rd Parties objects are not a solution... because I'm not asking my ISP to install it (I have enough problem with regular hosting to have more things to claim.)

On the other hand... I would need the screen resolution in VBScript... or at least be able to return the value to VBScript so that I can use the code I've already have.

The problem with detecting resolution is that it assumes the user maximizes the browser. What you really want is the window size and for that you will need to use Javascript. My suggestion would be to use Javascript to write the window size to a cookie (before you need to display the thumb nails) and then retrieve the value from the cookie.
