What it says on the tin: how do I set the width of a textarea in jQuery?

I want to set the width of a textarea to match the width of a particular image. Using .width() works for setting the width of an image, but not of a textarea.

$(document).ready(function() {
    var width = $("#my_image").width();
    $("#another_image").width(width); // works
    $("#my_textarea").width(width); // fails
});
