offsetWidth property
The offsetWidth property
contains the full width of an element
(includes the actual element width,
border width, padding, scrollbars):
Syntax
javascriptelement.offsetWidth;
Example
Let's find out the full size of an element:
html<div id="elem"></div>css#elem {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
padding: 15px;
border: 10px solid black;
}javascriptlet elem = document.querySelector('#elem');
console.log(elem.offsetWidth);
The code execution result:
javascript150
Example
If an element is hidden, then
offsetWidth is equal
to 0:
html<div id="elem"></div>css#elem {
display: none; /* hidden element */
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
padding: 15px;
border: 10px solid black;
}javascriptlet elem = document.querySelector('#elem');
console.log(elem.offsetWidth);
The code execution result:
javascript0
