<script type="text/javascript">
	var devicePixelWidth = window.getDevicePixelWidth();
</script>

If you want to assume that the user is in landscape mode use the following:

<script type="text/javascript">
	var devicePixelWidth = window.getDevicePixelWidth(true);
</script>

GetDevicePixelWidth supports a broad range of browsers and devices (there are currently no known unsupported browsers).
