[jQuery] using variables with jquery

[jQuery] using variables with jquery


Hi,
I need to make a div slide across the screen using the animate
command. It works when I use the following:
$('#js_innerwrapper').animate({left:"+=500"}, 1000, 'easeOutSine');
However, i need to be able to change the 500 to be width of the div,
which i get using:
$.gamewidth = $('.gamewrapper').width();
I then need to combine the two which does not seem to work:
$('#js_innerwrapper').animate({left:"+=$.gamewidth"}, 1000,
'easeOutSine');
Any ideas?
