HTML <object> width Attribute

The width attribute on an <object> tag sets the width of the object element.

The width is specified in pixels -- without the ‘px‘ unit.

Example

#

A width attribute on an <object> element.
This object has a width attribute and a CSS width property; CSS width takes precedence, i.e. wins.

<object data="/media/sample.pdf" type="application/pdf"
        width="800" height="450" style="width:100%">
</object>

Using width

The width attribute sets the width of the object.

The width is defined in pixels, without the 'px' extension.

To define the width in % or other unit, use the CSS width property.


Syntax

<object data="value" width="pixels">

Note: The width attribute requires that data has a value.
