FAQ-COM142 : HOW TO GET THE SCREEN SIZE AND BROWSER CAPABILITIES REPORT WORKING ?
PROBLEM:
I see in the AWStats features list that it can report the screen size used by visitors and other browsers' informations, (like if browser support Flash, Java, Javascript, PDF, MAcromedia, Audio plugins, etc...). How can I do that ?
SOLUTION:
AWStats is a log analyzer, so to report the screen size of your visitor, we need to have information inside the log file itself. For this, the only way to do that, is to add some HTML tags inside some of your pages (the home page is enough to get use ratios). This tag will add call to a javascript that ask your browser to get a virtual URL that includes, in its parameters, the screen size resolution and all other informations about browser capabilities (Flash, Java, Javascript, PDF, Macromedia, Audio plgins...).

This is the code you must add (at bottom of your home page for example) :
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="/js/awstats_misc_tracker.js" ></script>
<noscript><img src="/js/awstats_misc_tracker.js?nojs=y" height="0" width="0" border="0" style="display: none"></noscript>
 

Note that you must also place the awstats_misc_tracker.js script (provided in /js directory with AWStats) inside a js directory stored in your web root.
Once this is done, load your home page with your browser and go to check that inside your log file if you can see a line that looks like that:
123.123.123.123 - - [24/Apr/2005:16:09:38 +0200] "GET /js/awstats_misc_tracker.js?screen=800x600&win=724x517&...&sid=awssession_id123 HTTP/1.1" 200 6237 "http://therefererwebsite.com/index.php" "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3"  

If yes, you can then run the AWStats update process. Screen sizes information will be analyzed. All you have to do now is to edit your config file to tell AWStats to add the report on html output. For this, change the ShowMiscStats parameter.
ShowMiscStats=anjdfrqwp  

Note: If you change directory where awstats_misc_tracker.js is stored (somewhere else than the /js directory), you must modify, according to your change:
- the html tags added
- the line: var awstatsmisctrackerurl="/js/awstats_misc_tracker.js"; inside the awstats_misc_tracker.js script
- the parameter MiscTrackerUrl inside AWStats configuration file.
