Element.clientWidth
The Element.clientWidth property is zero for elements with no CSS or inline layout boxes, otherwise it's the inner width of an element in pixels. It includes padding but not the vertical scrollbar (if present, if rendered), border or margin.
This property will round the value to an integer. If you need a fractional value, use element.getBoundingClientRect().
