.width() is not enough ;-)
I have a div with overflow: hidden and it's width is, suppose, 100px;
Inside i have a very long P
<div style="width: 100px; overflow:hidden">
<p style="white-space:nowrap;">my v-e-r-y long text, repeated...my v-e-
r-y long text, repeated...100 times</p>
</div>

the NOWRAP keep my text in ONE line. Riht?
If i ask:
$("div p").width()
jQuery returns 100!

100 is the value of the visible area, i guess. What for the part i
don't see?
maybe the dimensions plugin may help? Tried but without success.


Is there any way to get the exact value, in PX of a NESTED element
even tho it's not FULLY visible?

Yes, still the newsticker....
Thanks in advance.
