Hello, I have to write a javascript function that is returning the current size (in px) of a div. Unfortunately the div has its weight specified in % instead of px.
The style of the div: position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%;
And my width returning function:
function getTableWidth(tableId){
    var tabWidth = document.getElementById('pt1::tabb').children[0].children[0].style.width;
    return tabWidth;
}
tabWidth is '100%'.
Is it possible to return the px width instead of the % width ?
NOTE: I don't have access to any html/css , as the page I am working on is generated through a complex framework. I can only embed javascript.
