Determine if scrollbar is visible?

[Turgeson]

Is there anyway to determine if a DIV with its overflow style set to
auto has the scrollbars visible? I have a dynamically built table inside
my DIV. If the table is over a certain height and the scrollbars appear,
I want to shrink the width of my table. If the table's height doesn't
exceed the div's height, I want the table to be the same width as the
div. Any ideas?

What is wrong with
<table style="width:100%;">

? I believe generally such table behaves quite like you describe.

I was using that, but I other things (such as the div border to change)
if the scroll is visible or not. I was hoping there was another way to
determine if the div has scroll bars without having to check the
dimension totals of all the elements inside my div.
