Hello all!!

Does anyone know if you can use Javascript to detect the Window's Display Font size?

I need to know if particular users are set to 96dpi or 120 dpi and customise my UI accordingly.

Cheers,

mmasci.

Those were useful references... but not what I was after.

I wanted to detect if the Windows display font size was set to 96dpi or 120dpi.

colorDepth and pixelDepth look at the number of colors used on a screen....

Any other ideas.... anyone???

Sounds like a design problem, not a Javascript problem.
