I can't find how to get the Screen class included into my project (no using). Also haven't been able to get SystemInformation to work in a web application either. I've done it using Javascript in my ASP apps. Had to have JV write a cookie, then read the cookie from within the ASP script. That might work (I guess) here but just seems like .Net should've dealt with a well-known problem like this. Any more suggestions? you can use javascripts screen.width and screen.height and pass the values

I've been pounding a co-worker of mine with> asking for web application so try this how great .Net tools are and how un-stable Javascript is. Now I've gotta eat crow and go back and say "hey, let's use javascript!". Ugh. Is there a way to use javascript in my page behind code (html) to stick the resolution into a form control (label or textbox)? I'm thinking I could grab it in code. BTW, what I'm ultimately after is that I want to store a database record to record the user's screen res, browser type, and IP for later analysis. Thanks again.

Now I suppose you could write a custom browser control in .NET, embed that in your web page and then use the .NET code to get the information. This would require the .NET framework be installed on any client visiting your website. Seems like a bad way to go when you can get the same info with a couple of lines of javascript. The key is knowing the appropriate tool to use for each given situation. -- Tom Porterfield
