jQuery has innerHeight/Width and outerHeight/Width methods, but is
there a method that can return a 'CSS Height/Width'. A CSS width is
the width that would be applied via CSS to achieve a given 'outer
width'. This value will differ depending on the box model and other
older browser idiosyncracies.

Here is an example...

DIV#Test {
   width: 90%;
   height: auto;
   padding: 7px;
   margin: 11px;
   border: 3px solid #000;
}

<DIV id="Test"> line1 <<BR> line 2 <BR> line 3 </DIV

Now I want to increase the DIV width & height by 1-pixel. To do so, I
need the current 'pixel width/height' that is equivent to its current
size. AFAIK, $("#Test").innerWidth() will not address this. Is there
another dimension method that can?

I already have a custom function to calculate this, but I'm wondering
if I am missing something in jQuery that would simplify my code? If
not, I may suggest such a method for jQuery, but want to be sure it
doesn't already exist!

Does anyone have knowledge of this?
