So when using border-box there is no actual width property, so I can't get it through:

```
$("#my_id").width()

```

nor

```
.outerWidth()

```

nor anything else
My guesses are that it has to be calculated through pixels, I dunno, seems too complicated, there must be an easier way.

Thanks!

*P.S.
- Using bootstrap
- Using jquery (obviously right?)*
