Usage

var $element = $('.something');

$element.cover();

// Update on resize
$(window).resize(function() {
  $element.cover('set');
});

Cover also needs some styles to be added to your stylesheet:

.something-container {
  position: relative;
  overflow: hidden;
}

.something {
  min-width: 100%;
  min-height: 100%;

  /* Center it like `background-position: center` */
  position: absolute;
  left: 50%;
  top: 50%;
  -webkit-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  -ms-transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}

Options

• container $(element), defaults to parent element
• ratio Integer, defaults to element height / width. Specify if dimentions aren't available on load (image, video, etc.)
