title: Get 'translateX' position in jQuery
body: <p>This code sets the translateX position:</p>
  
  <pre><code> var pos = -500px;
   $(.slide).css('-webkit-transform',  "translateX(" + pos+ "px)");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but, the following code does not get the translateX position:</p>
  
  <pre><code> var currTrans = $(".slide").css('-webkit-transform', "translateX()");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why? What is the correct way to get the value then?</p>
