Thanks Klaus.
Yes, I'm using jQuery 1.1.
However, this still doesn't seem to work. Try the sample code with a
longer caption, and this:
$('div.image p').click( function() {
alert( $(this).width() );
});
Now, clicking the caption will report its actual width. It's not
being limited to the width of the image...
