Difference Between width and innerWidth in jQuery
Width in jQuery
The width is the horizontal measurement of the container, for example, width of a div. It excludes the padding, border, or margin.
Example
You can try to run the following code to learn how to get the width of an element in jQuery:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
alert("Width of div element: " + $("div").width());
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div style="height:200px;width:400px;padding:20px;margin:1px;border:1px solid red; background-color:gray;"></div><br>
<button>Get Width of div</button>
</body>
</html>
innerWidth in jQuery
The innerWidth() returns the inner width of the first matched element. It includes padding, but not border and margin.
Example
You can try to run the following code to get the inner width in jQuery:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
alert("Inner Width of div element: " + $("div").innerWidth());
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div style="height:200px;width:400px;padding:20px;margin:1px;border:1px solid red; background-color:gray;"></div><br>
<button>Get Inner Width of div</button>
