No it is not urgent at all. Of course it is giving you a different resolution. It's whatever the resolution is set to on the server since that is what server side code does, runs on the server.

This is wrong approach, probably based on wrong approach to the page design. Instead of trying to develop code for certain screen resolution, you should assume that is is unknown (and the user can change the window size anytime), so, instead of relying on it, you should design the page in a manner highly tolerable to such characteristics.

Please see my past answers:

website display with different view in different monitor[^].

Try to embrace liquid, fluid or elastic Web page design. Please see my past answer:

Good luck,
