might be easier to put a very long string in a div, then set overflow:hidden for that div.
but the height and width of the div are div.offsetHeight and div.offsetWidth; they're DOM element properties, not jQuery methods. they're always in an integer number representing pixels. so if you want the height and width of any string just put it alone in a div and take those properties.
