Here is a quick snippet how to test if overflow is happening in a DOM element, shamelessly taken from http://www.bramstein.com/projects/text-overflow/.
// Check if overflow happens for a given jquery element
function check_overflow(element) {
var element_clone = element.clone();
element.after(element_clone.hide().css({
'position': 'absolute',
'width': 'auto',
'overflow': 'visible',
'max-width': 'inherit'
}));
