jQuery.fn.css getter returns computed but not relative value, but i agree, documentation might be more clear on that – https://github.com/jquery/api.jquery.com/issues/326

Seems like javascript can't actually get css properties only used values, but yeah the docs do read like you can. Maybe it needs to explain about used values. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/used_value?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=CSS%2Fused_value

shows that it gives the actual width value in pixels of the element and not it's css property of 100% percent. The docs say that .css returns css properties not rendered sizes.
