Frank,
I don't think you could extract the width from the control's style unless
you'd set it. I'd have to agree with you on that one. Isn't there a
property on the control (width?) you could determine the width from? Maybe
I answered too quick and should have done some research first. I was
thinking I had done something similar before, but as I dig deeper into my
memory I realize that it was the height of an iframe I set, and that was
based off the contained document's height (scroll height or some such
thing).
I suppose it seemed intuitive to me that the button should have a width.
I'll dig into my JavaScript book while at the office tomorrow and see if
there isn't a property that a person can determine the width of a button
with. There's got to be a way to do it. I'm curious now, too! I have been
wrong before though.
I'll try to pop-in at lunch and drop my findings ;-)
Eddie

Would that even work Eddie? I seem to remember that if you didn't
explicitly set the width of an element yourself, you can't retrieve it.
Indeed, this quick test:
<html>
<body onload="alert(document.getElementById('b').style.width);">
<input type="button" id="b" value="this is a test">
</body>
</html>
..results in a blank alert in both IE and FF.
This only matters of course if you have to make all the buttons the same
width dynamically, but now I'm just curious! Is there a way to do it I
wonder?
