You can first determine a definite size.

var size = [window.width,window.height];  //public variable

Then do this:

$(window).resize(function(){
    window.resizeTo(size[0],size[1]);
});

Q: Won't this cause an infinite loop of resizing? - user1147171

Nice question. This will not cause an infinite loop of resizing. The W3C specification states that resize event must be dispatched only when a document view has been resized. When the resizeTo function try to execute the second time, the window will have the exact same dimension as it just set, and thus the browser will not fire the resize event because the dimensions have not been changed.
