I'm working on a script to pass the content height to some other element. The whole script is within the document ready function, but somehow Google Chrome thinks the content height is 0 (zero), because it's so fast. When I set a timeout it works correctly, but I don't really like this solution because of the delay.

1. var contentHeight = ($('body').height();

1. setTimeout(function() {
2.       var contentHeight = ($('body').height();
3. }, 500);

Does anyone have a solution to make sure the whole document is loaded before measuring the height?

Thanks!
