Solution 1

you can use overflow:scroll to see the hidden content.

example:

#q{
height:200px;
overflow:scroll;
}

it will help you..

Solution 2

If you need to know what the height would have been without some of it being hidden (scrolled), refer to the scrollHeight property:

$('#q')[0].scrollHeight;
