check Overflow for <DIV>

dotnet jscript: Hello,

In DHMTL page, I have "<DIV style='width=100px;overflow:hidden'
id=divTest>test test test test</DIV>", I need to check if all text within
"<DIV>" and "</DIV>" is displayed; in other words, check if any charactor is
hidden. Could you tell how to check it by using javacript? Thanks a lot.

Charlie

We can't do this, unless the font size is hard code,and the user have same
moniter with fixed resolution. And then only if you examine the exact pixel
height and width for that particular size up front.

Can't you solve this another way instead? Autoscroll? Grow the div
vertically?

yes, in javascript just compare the divs clientHeight to its scrollHeight.
