Way to determine the visible size of the web page

Question

Is there a way for knowing what size was the visible portion of a page?

Are there any services that provide this? I mean, not just screen resolution, but available browser area. When a user has a lot of browser toolbars the area left for the webpage gets reduced. On the other hand, using Chrome may maximize the available space.

Thanks

Using Javascript, you can get the Window.InnerHeight & .InnerWidth

This is often called the "viewport". – DOK Jun 04 '10 at 16:58

You'll have to use Javascript or JQuery to do so.

I found another implementation on StackOverflow itself which used jQuery.

$(window.top).width()  
$(window.top).height()

P.S. Just don't forget the brackets as i always missed them.
