Sorry I thought you where looking for offsetWidth which is what outerWidth method does.

thanks glen... but i don't completely agree, because technically, according to the box model, width does not include border, padding, margin etc. But the total box's width, (not the element's width property) accounts for width+border+padding+margin. This is how a box is seen by the browser AFAIK. So, it is understandable that jquery's width() method returns the elements width style alone . But why is dimension's plugin explicitly intended to give the width+padding+border without including the margin? maybe because that is what offsetWidth property returns and that is what outerWidth means probably... no idea. It would be great if someone knew the answer. Regardless, thank u very much for the calculation suggestion. it works.. i used offsetWidth + margin-left + margin-right and it works like a charm. Dont know what will happen when percent values are specified though. got to try that out as well ;) -GTG On 6/26/07, Glen Lipka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > But margin shouldn't be included in width. > According to box model that is outside the box. > > http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/box.html > > Hmm, is there something that computes it all? > http://www.redmelon.net/tstme/box_model/ <-- not helpful but cool to > play with. > > You could do it on your own, offset + margin-left + margin-right > > Glen > > > On 6/26/07, Ganeshji Marwaha < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > hey, thanks for putting together a demo page in no time... > > Still, in your settings the margin is not included.
