The geometric definition of width is not really up for interpretation. From Wolfram Mathworld; "The width of a box is the horizontal distance from side to side" -- http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Width.html
Additionally, hundreds of millions of websites and every computer, phone and tablet capable of rendering a web page has agreed that width is the horizontal measure of a box, height refers to the vertical.
What exactly is “width” in geometry?
