You cannot pass a javascript variable to php directly.

You can use ajax for that (if it is worth the trouble). See jquery ajax.

Another way of doing it is using Javascript to store the screen resolution to a hidden fields (width and height) in a form that has get as a method. This way the server will get the resolution in a $_GET array. Please note, the form has to be submitted somehow.

Yet another way is using a cookie.
