How to detect if scrollbar is showing

[Kristian]

I'm including an application into a customer website using an iframe.
Some of the pages have a scrollbar since their height expands the
height of the iframe.

My problem is, I need to resize the width of my layout if a page in
the application uses a scrollbar, some of the pages show lists of
search results so I do now know the pages the expand the iframe height
up front.

How can I detect if the scrollbars are showing inside me page?

Then your page wasn't designed very well.
Design it properly. Besides, what if the user increases the font size? That
would then destroy your absolute widths as well.

As to the actual question, I don't believe there IS a way to detect that in a
cross-browser manner.
