Need Javascript!

[Lt. RaZieL]

Hi!

I (badly) need a javascript that detects the screen resolution (800*600 or 1024*768) and after a specified amount of time redirects the user to one of two pages (i have a welcome site and i want the users to be redirected to one of two sites after 5 seconds). I would really apreciate if someone could mail me a script that can do that.

Here you go...

<script type="text/javascript">
if (screen.width <= 800) // if less than or equal to 800x600
{
setTimeout("window.location.replace("800.htm")",5000);
}
else //everything else
{
setTimeout("window.location.replace("1024.htm")",5000);
}
</script>

I can't get it to work. Where do i paste it?

Pyro made two mistakes. The first, understandable one was to forget to use two different types of quote mark. The second, inexcusable one was to neglect the fact that one in ten users do not use JavaScript. Put this script in your document's body where you want the "Continue" link to appear for those users.

<script type="text/javascript">
if (screen.width <= 800) // if less than or equal to 800x600
{
setTimeout('window.location.replace("800.htm")',5000);
}
else //everything else
{
setTimeout('window.location.replace("1024.htm")',5000);
}
</script>

First of all, thanks for noticing my quotes error... :D

Yes, it was a sin of omission rather than of commission but no less injurious to Lt.RaZieL's audience or your own soul than had it been one of commission.
