jQuery .outerWidth() method gets current computed width for the first element selected
Syntax and Description
.outerWidth([includeMargin])
gets the current computed width for the first
element in the set of matched elements, including
padding and border.
includeMargin is a Boolean indicating whether
to include the element's margin in the calculation.
The return value is the width of the element, along with left and right padding, border, and optionally margin, in pixels.
If includeMargin is omitted or
false, the padding and border are included in the
calculation; if it's true, the margin is also included.
This method is not applicable to window and document objects; for these use .width() instead.
