4Without seeing the surrounding elements, the CSS applied to all of this, a working example, *something* that might give a clue as to the cause? No idea. – Paul Roub May 07 '15 at 21:13

1Basically, from the information you've provided, your problem is [no-repro](http://jsfiddle.net/davidThomas/986uwmqu/). – David Thomas May 07 '15 at 21:15

If you want to see its height then you need to prepend it with a certain height value like this:
$( ".panel article:first-child" ).prepend( "<p style='height:20px'>Test</p>" );

1Why do you think you need to explicitly assign a height to the element? – David Thomas May 07 '15 at 21:16

as @david-thomas mentioned, no-repro. the issue was the element i was targeting was rendered after the .prepend. i tested with another target, and worked as expected. sorry for the crappy question.
cheers.
