Screen: height property

{{APIRef("CSSOM view API")}}

The Screen.height read-only property returns the height of the screen in CSS pixels.

Value

A number.

Examples

if (window.screen.availHeight !== window.screen.height) {
  // Something is occupying some screen real estate!
}

Notes

Note that not all of the height given by this property may be available to the window itself. Widgets such as taskbars or other special application windows that integrate with the OS (e.g., the Spinner player minimized to act like an additional toolbar on windows) may reduce the amount of space available to browser windows and other applications, there is a difference in window.screen.height and window.screen.availHeight.
