I'm not sure that function works correctly with span elements, have you
tried using it on a div?

As an update... i added a lil bit of code to check the inner elements
dimensoins using:
$('debug').immediateDescendants().each( function(el) {
var dimE = el.getDimensions();
$('debugLog').update($('debugLog').innerHTML + '<br>height: ' +
dimE.height + ' width: ' + dimE.width);
});
and it accurately returns the size of those elements... is it
something do to with css?

Ive posted this before, but unfortunately I still have yet to resolve
it after numerous attempts...
Here is the overview: populate a container element with some new html
using Element.update and then retrieve the new dimensions of the
containig element.
Here is a bit of code snippet that I would think should work.. but
doesn't:
==== start snippet ====
<style>
.bigBox {
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
}
</style>
<script>
var content = '<span class="bigbox">hello world</span>';
$('debug').update(content);
var dim = $('debug').getDimensions();
$('debugLog').update('height: ' + dim.height + ' width: ' +
dim.width);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<span id="debugLog"></span>
<span id="debug"></span>
==== end snippet ====
The results returned are consistently:
mac firefox: height: 14 width: 0
mac safari: height: 17 width: 0
Ive tried setting a timeout by suggestion, which had no effect...
anyone have any ideas?
