How to get browser width using JavaScript code

Question

I am trying to write a JavaScript function to get the current browser width.

I found this one:

javascript:alert(document.body.offsetWidth);

But its problem that it fail if the body has width 100%.

Is there any other better function or a workaround?

Hello @kartik,

Use this code:

var w = window.innerWidth;
var h = window.innerHeight;
var ow = window.outerWidth; //including toolbars and status bar etc.
var oh = window.outerHeight;

Both return integers and don't require jQuery. Cross-browser compatible.

Hope it helps!!

Thank You!!
