That's how the computed style works in modern browsers. (For now) to do something different, use: jQuery.css( elem, 'width' ) That will give you the max pixel count. I'll probably make this into the method 'maxWidth()'. --John _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
