In Javascript width should not default to px considering you can also use em, px and %.

This won't help with your units issue but if you want Javascript to give more errors, try strict mode. Add: "use strict"; as the first line in your file.

If you wait for a deal to January, you can probably get a Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus for under $700.

If you want to really save money, you can get an S24 and it will still have half a year of upgrades.
