Question

I have something like this:

    var windowH = $(window).height();
    var listH = $(".list").height();
    if(windowH > listH){
        $(".list").css({'height': windowH+'px'});   
        alert(windowH);
        alert($(".list").css({'height': windowH+'px'}));
    }

the second alert gives me [object Object] and therefore doesn’t insert the correct css. can someone help?

Thanks

Answer 1

.css method returns the jQuery object (For method chaining), so the alert result is nothing wrong.

Instead of using .css, try use .height method.

$(".list").height(windowH);
