Just as the questions asks how may I get the exact px height or width of an element when that element has style="width:100%; height:auto;" for example.
I may NOT nest it inside a div and get the height/width via so!
I'm guessing javascript can help out here.
EDIT: I am using this:
var collectNodes = document.getElementById('fade').children;
collectNodes[y].height() // ??
The following code provides me with the string "auto":
collectNodes[0].style.height;
EDIT2: This is my code.
<div id="divId">
<img class="node" src="somePic0.png" style="z-index:10; opacity:0;"/>
<img class="node" src="somePic1.png" style="z-index:9; opacity:0;"/>
<img class="node" src="somePic2.png" style="z-index:8; opacity:1;"/>
<img class="node" src="somePic3.png" style="z-index:7; opacity:1;"/>
<img class="node" src="somePic4.png" style="z-index:6; opacity:1;"/>
</div>
<script>
var collectNodes = document.getElementById('divId').children;
var y = 0;
for ( var x = 0; x < collectNodes.length; x++ ) {
if ( collectNodes[x].style.opacity !== "" && !y ) {
y = x;
}
}
alert(collectNodes[y].height); // This alerts the string "auto" and not pixel height
</script>
height: 100% gives the element 100% height of its parent container. height: auto means the element height will depend upon the height of its children.
height:100vh The . box class has only 100vh which is 100% of the viewport height. When you set the height to 100vh, the box element will stretch its height to the full height of the viewport regardless of its parent height.
Syntax: height: length|percentage|auto|initial|inherit; Property Values: height: auto; It is used to set height property to its default value.
You could do it with pure javascript like this :
Javascript
var divHeight;
var obj = document.getElementById('id_element');
if(obj.offsetHeight) {
divHeight=obj.offsetHeight;
} else if(obj.style.pixelHeight) {
divHeight=obj.style.pixelHeight;
}
With jQuery library it's easier :
JQuery
var height = $('#element').height();
Edit
Now with many elements within a container :
Html
<div id="divId">
<img class="node" src="path/to/pic" style="z-index:10; opacity:0;"/>
<img class="node" src="path/to/pic" style="z-index:9; opacity:0;"/>
<img class="node" src="path/to/pic" style="z-index:8; opacity:1;"/>
<img class="node" src="path/to/pic" style="z-index:7; opacity:1;"/>
<img class="node" src="path/to/pic" style="z-index:6; opacity:1;"/>
</div>
I changed your opacity to visibility for compatibility purposes. Don't use display:none; or the height parsing will fail ;).
JQuery
$("#divId img").each(function(index, picture) {
var height = $(picture).height();
//Do everything you want with the height from the image now
});
See fiddle to see it working.
