get CSS rule's percentage value in jQuery

Question

Let\'s say the rule is as follows:

.largeField {
    width: 65%;
}

Is there a way to get \'65%\' back somehow, and not the pixel value?

Answer 1

I have a similar issue in Getting values of global stylesheet in jQuery, eventually I came up with the same solution as above.

Just wanted to crosslink the two questions so others can benefit from later findings.
