[jQuery] Bug with dimensions height() fn in IE7

[jQuery] Bug with dimensions height() fn in IE7


This is a cross post from the UI mailing list -- I mistakenly put it
there when it should have been here. Sorry about that!
I have a div that has a height of 80%, and this line:
$('.class:first').height()
works fine in firefox, but when I try to use it in IE7 it always
returns 1.
Is there a known workaround for this?
