With the code below, the alert doesn't return the actual size of #main, it always returns the value of #main's css width with the % dropped. So in this case I get 95 in the alert. If I alert parent().width() I get 100.
The data returned from the .get() call is a ul that sometimes is wider than #main, and sometimes not. The width of the content doesn't seem to have any bearing on what .width() returns.
So my question is, how do I get the true pixel width of #main?
CSS:
#container {
width: 100%;
}
#main {
width: 95%;
overflow: hidden;
}
HTML:
<div id=conatiner>
<div id=main></div>
</div>
Javascript/jQuery:
$.get('page.php', function(result) {
$('#main').html(result);
});
alert($('#main').width();
