I need to make Jquery plugin work with a media query

On the website i am developing i use a jQuery image zoom plugin, but i need to make it work only when viewport with is over 940px.

so this is my js code:

$(window).resize(function(){ if ($(window).width() >= 940){
$("#zoom").elevateZoom({ zoomType : "inner", cursor: "crosshair" }); }
});

It is working, but only after i resize my browser window. What could be the problem?

Do you need it to run when the window loads and when it is resized? You might define the function separately and both call it once immediately and also establish it as the resize event handler.
