Question

I want to create the width array of each children of selected element. I tried :

var width = $(element).children().map(function () { return this.style.width; }); 

But this is not working. When i alert(width[0]) then instead of showing width it shows objectHtmlElement. What i am doing wrong ?

Try .width() the style property only works if you set inline styles.

var widths = $(element).children().map(function () { return $(this).width(); });
