My text area has a font-size = 14pt but when I try and fetch it using jquery it returns me the data in pixels. Does anybody know how to get the values in points?

    .css('font-size') will give you only `px` – Java_User Sep 04 '14 at 12:24

    You are saying that `I try and fetch it using jquery it returns me the data in points`.. And again you are asking for the same thing `Does anybody know how to get the values in points?` .. If you are already getting in points then why are you asking this question ?? – Yunus Aslam Sep 04 '14 at 12:45
  • If that `font-size` set in element style attribute/property, you can get it like `node.style.fontSize`. In other case you should get value in px `getComputedStyle( node ).fontSize` then convert it into pt – Novelist Sep 04 '14 at 12:46
