Dynamic HTML: The Definitive Reference

Name

screen — NN n/a IE 4 DOM n/a

Synopsis

Read-only

Returns a reference to the screen object. Internet Explorer treats the screen object as a property of the window, even though the scope of the screen object transcends all windows or frames currently existing in the browser. Since the window reference is optional, syntax without the window reference works on Internet Explorer and Navigator when a common property is accessed.

Example

var howDeep = screen.availHeight

Value

Object reference.

Default

screen object.
