Browser and Desktop Dimensions Statistics

This is a simple overview of the sizes of users' desktops and the inside dimensions of their browser software's client window. Not all user's view webpages with their browsers maximized. A client window is a programmer's term for the viewable area inside the browsing application excluding all scrollbars, menus, toolbars, status bars and other window dressings.

The statistics were gathered from a small number of websites (including this one) using javascript. window.screen.width and window.screen.height collect information about the desktop and document.body.clientWidth and document.body.clientHeight gather information about the client's dimensions. Some browsers return strange values, such as Opera which I have observed returning 800 × 5000 for both pairs of dimensions. There are likely others, but for most browsers, these values work as expected.
