title: Jquery change width of div
body: <p>I want to change the width of elements rendered using following code. I have tried adding style width:xxpx element in definition and try defining a new css class to invail. I want both the containers under main container to be of same size. But the following code is rendering approximately 40-60. I am using the style sheets from jquery ui(jquery-ui-1.7.1.custom.css).</p>
  
  <pre><code> this.container = $('&lt;div class="ui-multiselect ui-helper-clearfix ui-widget" &gt;&lt;/div&gt;').insertAfter(this.element);
   this.availableContainer = $('&lt;div class="ui-widget-content list-container available"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;').appendTo(this.container);
   this.selectedContainer = $('&lt;div class="ui-widget-content list-container selected"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;').appendTo(this.container);
  </code></pre>
