    This is basic, basic javascript stuff dude.

    $(function () {
    var win, lazyResize;

    function handleResize() {
    var divWidth = $('#somediv').width();
    // now do something with that...
    }

    // debounce is an underscore.js function.
    // We debounce so it doesn't fire too many times, taking up
    // cycles on the user's computer.
    lazyResize = _.debounce(handleResize, 100);
    // Hold reference to window for speed.
    win = $(window);
    // Apply event handler on resizing window...
    win.on('resize', lazyResize);
    // Call it once to start
    lazyResize();
    });
