<input type="text" id="age" />

and inside myownplugin i've tried

You can use these methods:

height + padding + border:

$(this).outerHeight() 

.

height + padding + border + margin:

$(this).outerHeight(true) 

height is a method: $(this).height();

i don't know about your plugin structure, but height is a method so you have to use it like a method :).
for example-if you try this in your js, you will get the height of input box.

$('#age').height();

You can use $(elem).attr("height") too.
