<div style='width: 20cm'>
  <div style='width: 50%'>
    ...
  </div>
</div>

div_inner
  ->getComputedStyle
    ->getPropertyCSSValue('width')
      ->getFloatValue(CSS_PX)

will raise INVALID_ACCESS_ERR since 10cm couldn't be converted to pixels

Then replace 'solid' with 'dotted' in my statement.
