jQuery width() and height() Methods

padding, border and margin).
The height() method sets or returns the height of an element (excludes padding, border
and margin).
The following example returns the width and height of a specified <div>
element:

Example

  var txt = "";
  txt += "Width: " + $("#div1").width() + "</br>";
  txt += "Height: " + $("#div1").height();
  $("#div1").html(txt);
});
