jQuery .css() function not returning expected values

Question

Alright, I\'ve search the jQuery docs (needs somebody devoted to maintaining), I\'ve searched SO, and I\'ve searched Google. I can\'t find the answer to this question.

Answer 1

This is indeed an issue in newer versions of jQuery. If this is an important feature for you, you can try downgrading to 1.4.2 where it is still working properly.
