What about using that with jquery:

var max = $('#element')[0].scrollLeftMax; // when using the polyfill
var max =  $('#element')[0].scrollLeftMaxi(); // when using the other alternative more support IE6+

Answer 3

Here's a version that accounts for padding and uses prop instead of accessing the DOM element directly.

$('#box').prop('scrollHeight') - $('#box').innerHeight();

Answer 4

here you go:

var trueDivHeight = $('.someclass')[0].scrollHeight;
var divHeight = $('.someclass').height();
var scrollLeft = trueDivHeight - divHeight;
alert(scrollLeft);
