.width() not returning correct result in IE<8 of Safari browsers when content injected in dom

[nicskitt]

When inserting content into the DOM via the load() call the correct width of the containing div is not returned when using the width() function in certain browsers. IE8 & FF3+ do not seem to be affected.

In most cases the total width of the window is returned instead.

WIthout an example, it sounds like this may be a logic error in your code. You should make sure that you don't call the .width() method too soon.
