JavaScript calculate with viewport width/height

Problem is that JS does not have 40vh, calculate how much pixels is 40vh first to use it. It will throw error when doing 1000 - 40vh

40vh means 40 % of viewport height. So window.innerHeight * 0.4 == 40vh

Also there is no such thing as wh, only vh (% of viewport height)

Based on this site you can use the following util functions to calculate your desired values as a function of a percent of screen width or height:

function vh(percent) {
  var h = Math.max(document.documentElement.clientHeight, window.innerHeight || 0);
  return (percent * h) / 100;
}

function vw(percent) {
  var w = Math.max(document.documentElement.clientWidth, window.innerWidth || 0);
  return (percent * w) / 100;
}

function vmin(percent) {
  return Math.min(vh(percent), vw(percent));
}

function vmax(percent) {
  return Math.max(vh(percent), vw(percent));
}

console.info(vh(20), Math.max(document.documentElement.clientHeight, window.innerHeight || 0));
console.info(vw(30), Math.max(document.documentElement.clientWidth, window.innerWidth || 0));
console.info(vmin(20));
console.info(vmax(20));

I used this incredible question in my codes!

Try this:

function getViewport() {

 var viewPortWidth;
 var viewPortHeight;

 // the more standards compliant browsers (mozilla/netscape/opera/IE7) use window.innerWidth and window.innerHeight
 if (typeof window.innerWidth != 'undefined') {
   viewPortWidth = window.innerWidth,
   viewPortHeight = window.innerHeight
 }

// IE6 in standards compliant mode (i.e. with a valid doctype as the first line in the document)
 else if (typeof document.documentElement != 'undefined'
 && typeof document.documentElement.clientWidth !=
 'undefined' && document.documentElement.clientWidth != 0) {
    viewPortWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth,
    viewPortHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight
 }

 // older versions of IE
 else {
   viewPortWidth = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].clientWidth,
   viewPortHeight = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].clientHeight
 }
 return [viewPortWidth, viewPortHeight];
}
