Menu
I believe I have found a bug in WebKit. It involves outerWidth(true) (and I assume outerHeight(true) ) in jQuery.
In every browser but Safari and Chrome, the third box is 200. In Safari and Chrome, it is (almost) the width of my screen.

You can test is for yourself here: http://ramblingwood.com/sandbox/webkit-bug/test.html
I used this test file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
input {
width: 50%;
height: 1em;
font-size: 1em;
}
#testBox {margin-left:100px;width:100px;}
#testBox2 {padding-left:100px;width:100px;}
#testBox3 {border-left:100px black solid;width:100px;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
function init(){
$('#w1').val($('#testBox').width());
$('#ow1').val($('#testBox').outerWidth());
$('#owt1').val($('#testBox').outerWidth(true));
$('#w2').val($('#testBox2').width());
$('#ow2').val($('#testBox2').outerWidth());
$('#owt2').val($('#testBox2').outerWidth(true));
$('#w3').val($('#testBox3').width());
$('#ow3').val($('#testBox3').outerWidth());
$('#owt3').val($('#testBox3').outerWidth(true));
}
$(document).ready(function(){
init();
$(window).resize(function(){
init();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>

Chrome's DOM inspector confirms that this is a WebKit issue; the div gets a large right margin, even if you try to override margin-right. Some things that force the margin to be calculated correctly include float: left and display: inline-block. Also if you put the div inside of another sized div, its outerWidth(true) will give the innerWidth of the containing div, which could be a useful real-world workaround -- just wrap it in a div with margin: 0; padding: 0; width: XXX.
