Width of a DIV

Mat
Hi there,

If I don't set the width property of a DIV and simply allow it to size
itself according to its content how can I then find the width it is on
screen. When I interrogate the
document.getElementById('myDiv').style.width property it return
nothing and the pixelWidth property returns 0.

Any suggestions would be very helpful. Please also reply by email to
ma*********@hotmail.com
