Question

Is it possible to change a div‘s width live with jQuery? And if it is, how?

What I want is to change its width depending on the browser’s window width in real time, so if/when the user changes the browser window, the div‘s dimensions are changed as well in realtime.

Answer 1

You can use, which will be triggered when the window resizes.

$( window ).bind("resize", function(){
    // Change the width of the div
    $("#yourdiv").width( 600 );
});

If you want a DIV width as percentage of the screen, just use CSS width : 80%;.
