Find the exact height and width of the viewport in a cross-browser way (no Prototype/jQuery)
- by lyoshenka
I'm trying to find the exact height and width of a browser's viewport, but I suspect that either Mozilla or IE is giving me the wrong number. Here's my method for height:
var viewportHeight = window.innerHeight ||
document.documentElement.clientHeight ||
document.body.clientHeight;
I haven't started on width yet but I'm guessing it's going to be something similar.
Is there a more correct way of getting this information? Ideally, I'd like the solution to work with Safari/Chrome/other browsers as well.
