Expose the width and height scroll bars add to a view to chromium.

[Sam Kerner]

Chromium allows extensions to create popups that are sized to fit the popup's content.  Browser action popups are an example.  In order to compute the proper size, chromium needs to know the width and height scroll bars add to a window.  Add a method to expose this information.

This change will allow the following bug to be fixed:  http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=31494

Could you deduce this information from WebFrame::contentsSize() if you also had a WebFrame::visibleSize()?  Maybe we should just add a WebFrame::visibleSize() method.

This really needs Darin Fisher's review since you are changing the public api, so these are just some drive by comments.

Incorrect * placement. It should look like this:
WebCore::FrameView* view = m_frame->view();

R- since there are open questions and i'd like to get this out of the review queue.

Sorry to not look at this for a while.  Milestone-5 issues distracted me.

That could work if WebFrame::contentsSize() gave the size of the contents drawn on screen.  However, it seems to give the size of the contents, including content you would need to scroll to see.

I could add WebFrame::visibleSize() and WebFrame::visibleSizeIncludingScrollbars(), and subtract them.  Or I could create WebFrame::visibleSize(bool includeScrollbarSize).  Would one of those options be preferred to adding WebFrame:scrollbarsSize()?

[Sorry for the delayed reply!]

How about adding the following methods:

  int verticalScrollbarWidth() const;
  int horizontalScrollbarHeight() const;

These can return 0 if the scrollbar does not exist.

Given that it's not clear how to fix the underlying bug here from the Chrome side, I'm closing this.
