The reason why this worked for javascript is because it is a client side
instruction set. PHP is a server side instruction set. PHP has no idea
what resolution the user's screen is nor can it resize the browser. In
fact, PHP can't do anything with the browser.
I should just copy and save the above and paste it into everyone one of
