I have been searching every where for this but no one even mentions it. Javascript can detect the resolution and redirect accordingly but I have yet to see any indication that it can do that with the color depth. I know Javascript can detect color depth, using this I believe: window.screen.pixelDepth but all the scripts that have this are ones that display the information on a page for the user. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

hi Khoury,

pixelDepth is NS specific - it doesn't exist in IE.

sure -


function redirect() {
switch(screen.colorDepth) {
case 8:
location = "8bitColor.html";
break;

case 16:
location = "16bitColor.html";
break;

case 24:
location = "24bitColor.html";
break;

case 32:
location = "32bitColor.html";
break;
}
} =========================================================
if (!succeed) try();

I wrapped it in <script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;><!-- //--></script> but it didn't seem to work. Did I do something wrong? Sorry for being such a newb.

hi khoury,

you have to call the function somewhere:

[tt]<html>
<head>
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
<!--
function redirect() {
switch(screen.colorDepth) {
case 8:
location = &quot;8bitColor.html&quot;;
break;

case 16:
location = &quot;16bitColor.html&quot;;
break;

case 24:
location = &quot;24bitColor.html&quot;;
break;

case 32:
location = &quot;32bitColor.html&quot;;
break;
}
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onload=&quot;redirect();&quot;>
</body>
</html>
[/tt]

=========================================================
if (!succeed) try();
