| Subject | When do elements get their style attribute values? |
| Message-ID | <timstreater-888955.17142712072011@news.individual.net> |
There are some elements in one of my app's pages whose height values I'd
like to get as soon as possible, since I want to use the values to
calculate and set heights of other elements. And I'd like to be able to
either get the element's natural height or one I set using CSS.
So, I'm doing something like [1]:
h =
document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(e,null).getPropertyValue("height");
where e is a pointer to my element.
But I find that if I do this right at the start of the onload function,
I get back a zero value, whereas if I do it a bit later (e.g. after
waiting for some ajax calls to complete), then I get the proper value.
So when are these style values set? The reason for this is to avoid what
I do at the moment: compute the true height by hand and just have a
JavaScript variable initialised to that value.
[1] If/when I can sort this I can collect the border/margin/padding
values too.

Do you get the same behaviour with any browser you try that supports
getComputedStyle?
If the element is part of the static markup of the document then I would
stuff like dimensions to be known "onload".
Do you have URL where the issue occurs? Which browser(s) does that
happen with?

I'm using Safari under OS X. As things stand there is no URL as this is
not a conventional website. The user runs a script which launches Safari
and apache; everything runs locally on the user's machine. I just happen
to be using a web browser for presentation and ajax to activate PHP
scripts for backend stuff.

So would I :-)
I may try knocking up a little testbed and seeing what happens there,
and with other browsers.

Try
h = e.offsetHeight;
instead, which is simpler.

The answer is utterly simple. If some JavaScript program changes
the height, then the style values are set exactly after that
JavaScript program has finished its work and before the next one
starts.

This is not about a programme, but about script-execution. When during a timeOut the DOM is updated, I would not call that aa new start of a Javascript programme. Perhaps we only differ in the definition of "programme"? -- Evertjan. The Netherlands. (Please change the x'es to dots in my emailaddress)

Not really. I'm trying to *read* the values as soon as I can be sure
that the element exists - in the onload handler. No JavaScript of mine
has attempted to set the height (or margin-top etc) before that. And I
don't want it to - I want to use CSS to define everything, and *read* it
with javaScript.
It usually helps to read the question before giving an answer.

Sorry, but you had written earlier: "But I find that if I do this right at the start of the onload function, I get back a zero value, whereas if I do it a bit later (e.g. after waiting for some ajax calls to complete), then I get the proper value. I could not rule out that the Ajax calls change the height, so that seemed like the most likely explanation. If not, then I have to assume that onload fires before the page is completely loaded, including its linked CSS files. That's news to me. Can anybody here confirm or deny it? Hans-Georg

And guess what: I got an intelligent answer and suggestion for
workaround there, too.

The fact that their[tm] crystal balls work slightly better than ours[tm]
does not mean that your question was a smart one.
To that end, you want to read the FAQ and

The ajax calls themselves are not relevant, except in so far as they provided a delay, as a considerable amount of initialisation is done - but not of any element heights. And it's not my "opinion", but the result of testing, using the easiest method available to see whether a delay had any effect. It did, and I reported the fact. And that itself *was* relevant, as evidenced by the response in jsmentors. > I have nothing else to add to my initial statements. Good. I suggest you keep it that way. In fact, I'm not sure why you chipped in at all. If you don't know the answer (and there's nothing wrong with that), then keep quiet rather than starting a pointless meta-discussion. > F'up2 PointedEars Not they're not. -- Tim "That excessive bail ought not to be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted" -- Bill of Rights 1689

Fair enough, in this case.

Yes, they are.

You are still missing the point, even though it has been explained to you.

Apparently not, as you have impolitely ignored my request to reply via
e-mail only, too.
