I need to get the screen resolution of your visitors on the site. Is it possible to do this in ASP.NET? I get the screen resolution using the code:

var mn = System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds;
int h = mn.Height;
int w = mn.Width;

But this resolution on the server. I need a resolution of client monitor.

    Why do you need this information? Websites should work at any resolution. – Dai Mar 27 '13 at 19:11

  • You are most likely going to have to do it with client side code like JavaScript, even then you will only get the resolution of their browser window. – dkroy Mar 27 '13 at 19:12
  • CSS media queries have become the accepted method for dealing with display resolution in a web app. See e.g. http://line25.com/tutorials/create-a-responsive-web-design-with-media-queries – Dave Clausen Mar 27 '13 at 19:15

You will have to use javascript to accomplish this.availHeight availWidth

window.screen.availHeight
window.screen.availWidth

Then you will have to pass this back to your application somehow.
