What I want I want to know physical screen width and height using javscript
Why I want I want it so that I can use it when a portrait screen device(like mobile phone) wants to have a video call with landscape device(like laptop). This way I can swap width and height constraints according to the other end of the call. So for mobile device I will send video in portrait mode and for laptop I will send it in landscape mode, by swapping width and height dimensions(constraints).
I would like to know a device original screen size or orientation irrespective of browser widow size change or device is orientation change.
I have already found many posts asking about orientation or dimensions but they all seem to have some flaws, according to the comments, and some don't address physical screen dimensions.
I have mentioned what I aim to achieve. Maybe there is a better way to achieve that.
Please help.
Thank you
You could use screen.height and screen.width properties in javascript to get the height and width of the user's screen in pixels (irrespective of the browser size).
> screen.width
2048
> screen.height
1280
This works with most browsers and certainly works with Chrome, IE, Safari, Firefox, Opera.
