How ro get the width of the DIV?

[Daniel]

Hi,

The DIV is a htmlgenericcontrol object.
I have no idea to get its width.

Is it dctr.Style.Item(?)?
I dont know the ? item.

Your help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Best regards,

You can only get it on client side and then transfer to the server in a
hidden input control.

Not that simple.

Browsers have their own logic and priorities. They may consider your
instructions as recommendations and set another width.

<input type=hidden id=inhDivWidth runat=server>

This is an invisible html control. In javascript you get the width of the
panel and assign it to inhDivWidth.value. The value will get to the server
with a postback and your server code can access inhDivWidth.Value.
