FF 3 scrollWidth: 211
Safari 2, Safari 3, Opera 9.5: scrollWidth: 210
The OP was very specific in that he wants to obtain the content area. I
would also like a simple solution to this problem.
It doesn't seem scrollWidth takes the content width into consideration for
the OP's question. My interpretation is that there is a single line of text
No need to interpret. Read the OP's response: "Thanx. Yes, that
worked." And the scrollWidth property is not a mystery.
that is being scrolled within a div. If the width of that text is greater
than the div width, then scrollWidth just reports the width of the div. I
modified your code to demonstrate this.
That's what he wanted. No need for a demonstration of scrollWidth.
