dimensions

As in the subject, how can one get the total width of an element, including its border and padding, using jQuery? I've got the jQuery dimensions plugin, and running .width() on my 760px-wide, 10px padding DIV returns 760. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but if my element manifests itself as 780 pixels wide and Firebug tells me that there's 10px padding on it, but calling .width() only gives 760, I'd be hard pressed to see how. Thanks for any suggestions. Andreas Grech [Update] The original answer was written prior to jQuery 1.3, and the functions that existed at the time where not adequate

I have a VideoView which is set up like this: <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/player" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"> <VideoView android:id="@+id/video" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:layout_centerVertical="true" /> <ProgressBar android:id="@+id/loader" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:layout

I've read about various kinds of ways getting image dimensions once an image has fully loaded, but would it be possible to get the dimensions of any image once it just started to load?

You are right that one can get image dimensions before it's fully

Does anyone know how to return the number of dimensions of a (Variant) variable passed to it in VBA? Jacob Function getDimension(var As Variant) As Long On Error GoTo Err Dim i As Long Dim tmp As Long i = 0 Do While True i = i + 1 tmp = UBound(var, i) Loop Err: getDimension = i - 1 End Function That's the only way I could come up with. Not pretty…. Looking at MSDN, they basically did the same. To return the number of dimensions without swallowing errors: #If VBA7 Then Private Type Pointer: Value As LongPtr: End Type Private Declare PtrSafe Sub RtlMoveMemory Lib "kernel32" (ByRef dest As Any,
