Is there a cross-browser way to listen to div overflow?

Something like: $('#myDiv').bind("divOverflow", function(){alert('div overflowed!')})

Answer 1

You can do that by comparing scrollHeight with clientHeight.

<script type="text/javascript">
function GetContainerSize ()
{
    var container = document.getElementById ("tempDiv");
    var message = "The width of the contents with padding: " + container.scrollWidth + "px.\n";
    message += "The height of the contents with padding: " + container.scrollHeight + "px.\n";

    alert (message);
}
</script>
