How to set width of a div in percent in JavaScript

Question

Is it possible to set the height width of an element in percent using JavaScript or jQuery

User · Answer

Also you can use  prop   and it should be better because     Since jQuery 1 6  these properties can no longer be set with the  attr   method  They do not have corresponding attributes and are only properties      elem  prop  width    100       elem  prop  height    100

The question is what do you want the div s height width to be a percent of   By default  if you assign a percentage value to a height width it will be relative to it s direct parent dimensions  If the parent doesn t have a defined height  then it won t work   So simply  remember to set the height of the parent  then a percentage height will work via the css attribute   obj style width    50
