Description
Using Google Chrome a simple call to $(window).outerWidth() results in the message "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'width' of undefined". Same thing in Firefox and IE. Function worked fine in previous releases. Hope you can manage a fix. Keep up the good work.

Replying to [comment:1 jitter]:
Can you elaborate on this? In previous version$(window).outerWidth()returnsNaNfor me. test case
Yeah, that's what I mean. That's what you would expect -- a result that can be tested in a true/false fashion (in my code, the object outerWidth() is called on may be something besides window, something that does have an outer width value; $(window) is the default if nothing else is provided). The problem seems to be something internal. In the newest version, I don't get NaN. I get the internal error mentioned above, and the script stops executing. If we could get it to return NaN, that'd be great. Hope that helps.

So I guess we need to check that style properties exist in the cssHooks for width/height, though presumably we will end up returning undefined instead of NaN when all is said and done.

Yay for quick release cycles. This is fixed in currently available release versions of Chrome.

What about FF and IE (Opera?) original reporter claims it fails there too.

This is not fixed, even in latest Chrome and latest jQuery.

Also, as mentioned by the original reporter and jitter, this isn't a Chrome or WebKit specific bug.

Just to beat a dead horse here, here are 2 JsFiddles
"NaN" returned in jQuery 1.3.2 : http://jsfiddle.net/kn3WM/
"Script Error." error in jQuery 1.4.4 : http://jsfiddle.net/jSYRG/

On the other hand, the documentation for this method specifically says:
"This method is not applicable to window and document objects; for these, use .width() instead." So I don't think it's fair to expect consistent results across versions for this.

Return null for outer/inner width/height calls on window/document. Fixes #7557.

Seems like $myelement.outerWidth() does not work if your page is in an iframe. Has that being tested before closing the bug? Should I open a separate ticket for that?
Can you elaborate on this? In previous version
