- JavaScript – screen.availHeight PropertyThe screen.availHeight property returns the height of the user’s screen in pixels minus any interfaces like the Windows Taskbar or Mac Dock.
- JavaScript – screen.availWidth PropertyThe screen.availWidth property returns the width of the user’s screen in pixels minus any interfaces like the Windows Taskbar or Mac Dock.
- JavaScript – screen.colorDepth PropertyThe screen.colorDepth property returns the screen’s color depth in bits per pixel.
- JavaScript – screen.height PropertyThe screen.height property returns the total height of the user’s screen in pixels.
- JavaScript – screen.pixelDepth PropertyThe screen.pixelDepth property returns the screen’s color depth in bits per pixel.
- JavaScript – screen.width PropertyThe screen.width property returns the total width of the user’s screen in pixels.
JavaScript Notes:
- When using JavaScript, single or double quotation marks are acceptable and work identically to one another; choose whichever you prefer, and stay consistent
- JavaScript is a case-sensitive language; firstName is NOT the same as firstname
- Arrays count starting from zero NOT one; so item 1 is position [0], item 2 is position [1], and item 3 is position [2] … and so on
- JavaScript variables must begin with a letter, $, or _
- JavaScript variables are case sensitive (x is not the same as X)
We’d like to acknowledge that we learned a great deal of our coding from W3Schools and TutorialsPoint, borrowing heavily from their teaching process and excellent code examples. We highly recommend both sites to deepen your experience, and further your coding journey. We’re just hitting the basics here at 1SMARTchicken.
