Get height of image inside a hidden div

Question

i want to to get the height/width of an image inside a hidden div-containter, but .height() and .width() both returns 0 (like expected).

Answer 1

Its because the image has not loaded yet.....

$('body').append('
');
$('#init').hide();

$('#myimg').bind("load",function(){
    alert(this.height) //works
})​
