Chrome and jquery css not working properly

I'm trying to create a dyna开发者_JAVA技巧mic element, apply some css on it from an external css file, and access the properties with jQuery. It works on Firefox but it does not on Chrome.

Here is an example :

CSS file (myFile.css):

.myClass {
    width : 200px;
    font-family : Verdana;
    font-size : 12px;
}

javascript code in a different file (myFile.js):

var title = $("<p/>").attr({id: "myId"}).addClass("myClass").appendTo(content);    
var titW = title.width();
var titFSize = parseInt(title.css("fontSize"));
var titFFamily = title.css("fontFamily");
console.log(titW, titFSize, titFFamily); // Firefox returns good values, Chrome does not

Any ideas? Thanks!

Ok, I've got the answer based on your comment. You need to enclose all your jQuery code in a DOMReady event.

jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
    // jQuery code goes here
});

This ensures that the Document Object Model (DOM) will be fully ready before it runs.

The 100ms delay you mentioned in your comment isn't a good idea, because you don't know that the stylesheet will always load in 100ms.
