A sham that will throw a window resize event even when scrollbars are added/removed (this is not something the standard window resize event does). Tested in IE9+, Chrome & Firefox latest.
// Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/pFaSx/
// Create an invisible iframe
var iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
iframe.id = "hacky-scrollbar-resize-listener";
iframe.style.cssText = 'height: 0; background-color: transparent; margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden; border-width: 0; position: absolute; width: 100%;';
// Register our event when the iframe loads
iframe.onload = function() {
// The trick here is that because this iframe has 100% width
