help: correct size background image?

[sleem]

I designed a little function to resize a window based on the clients
screen resolution, and apply an appropriate background image.

function resize_2_spec()
{
if (screen.width>640)
{
window.resizeTo(800,600);
document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'url(images/brunswickst600x800.jpg)';
}
else
{
window.resizeTo(640,480);
document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'url(images/brunswickst480x640.jpg)';
}
}

Problem is: how do I test it?

What's the easiest way?

Also, do you think that would work on all browsers?

Eugh. Thankfully browsers increasingly come with features that allow that
part of JavaScript to be selectively disabled.

By changing your resolution

Also, do you think that would work on all browsers?

No, certainly not.

Change your screen resolution setting.

No. Many people think it's extremely rude for a web site to
change the size of their windows, and modern browsers allow
them to prevent it via preference settings.
