javascript - Do something if screen width is less than 960 px

Question

How can I make jQuery do something if my screen width is less than 960 pixels? The code below always fires the 2nd alert, regardless of my window size:

if (screen.width < 960) {
    alert('Less than 960');
}
else {

    alert('More than 960');
}

Answer 1

Use jQuery to get the width of the window.

if ($(window).width() < 960) {
   alert('Less than 960');
}
else {
   alert('More than 960');
}
