How can PHP developers work around the limitations of not being able to directly access browser resolution information?

PHP developers can work around the limitations of not being able to directly access browser resolution information by using client-side JavaScript to gather the necessary information and then sending it to the server using AJAX requests. This way, PHP can still access the resolution data without directly querying the browser. 

//index.php

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Browser Resolution</title>
    <script>
        var resolution = "Resolution: " + window.innerWidth + "x" + window.innerHeight;
        var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
        xhr.open('POST', 'resolution.php', true);
        xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
        xhr.send("resolution=" + resolution);
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Getting Browser Resolution...</h1>
</body>
</html>
```

```php
//resolution.php

<?php
if(isset($_POST['resolution'])) {
    $resolution = $_POST['resolution'];
    echo "Browser Resolution: " . $resolution;
} else {
    echo "No resolution data received.";
}
?>
