Width/height-measures return wrong value in connection /w CSS-transitions

[drublic]

If you use CSS3 transitions on an element and want to get the width via $.fn.width() or $.fn.css('width') after you manipulated it first, the value that gets returned is the same size as before.

I set up a jsFiddle for this case:  http://jsfiddle.net/drublic/9Sput/ I'm using the 1.7 from the git-repo here…

Browserstuff:

• Not working in Safari 5.1, Chrome Stable and Chrome Canary (16), Opera 11.51
• working in Firefox Nightly 10.0a1 and Firefox Stable
• no IE at hand

This might be a browser-thing… But maybe you want to check it.

Wait until the transition is finished to check the dimensions of the element.

I wouldn't recommend actually using a setTimeout, but to make the point, see:
