How can PHP be used to determine the width of the screen on which a webpage is displayed?

To determine the width of the screen on which a webpage is displayed using PHP, you can use the $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] variable to get information about the user's browser and device. By parsing this information, you can extract the screen width and use it in your PHP code to make responsive design decisions.

$user_agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

// Extract screen width from user agent
if (preg_match('/\((\d+)x(\d+)\)/', $user_agent, $matches)) {
    $screen_width = $matches[1];
    echo "Screen width: " . $screen_width;
} else {
    echo "Unable to determine screen width.";
}
