getStyle method differs for width/height
Reported by Mark Caudill | August 28th, 2008 @ 05:33 PM | in 1.6.1
I was looking around and I noticed that looking up width/height on IE/Opera (Element.Methods.getStyle) returns the offsetWidth/offsetHeight. There wouldn't be a specific problem with this except that Element.getStyle returns the CSS value of width/height.
I am in favor of the actual width/height being returned if available. If not, offsetWidth can be made closer to the actual width with taking into account available padding/border information.
