Sets or retrieves the width of the object.
Syntax
HTML N/A Scripting object.style.pixelWidth [ = iWidth ]
Possible Values
iWidth Integer that specifies the width, in pixels. The property is read/write with no default value.
Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value(s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more information, see Dynamic Properties.
Remarks
Setting this property changes the value of the width without changing the units designator. Unlike the width property, the pixelWidth value is an integer, not a string, and is always interpreted in pixels.
For more information about how to access the dimension and location of objects on the page through the document object model, see Measuring Element Dimension and Location.
Example
This example uses a timer to increment the pixelWidth property.
Sample Code
<SCRIPT> function scaleThis() { if (sphere.style.pixelWidth <900) { sphere.style.pixelWidth += 4; sphere.style.pixelHeight +=4; window.setTimeout("scaleThis();", 1); } } : </SCRIPT>
