Given a <div> that has a horizontal scrollbar, .getStyle("height") returns a value inclusive of the scrollbar in Firefox and IE, but returns an value exclusive of the scrollbar in Chrome.

1) Is this as designed? (I thought / hoped that YUI would normalize browser implementation differences for me.)

2) In certain cases involving nested div's in Chrome, getComputedStyle("height") and getStyle("height") return different results--where getComputedStyle("height") excludes the scrollbar and getStyle("height") includes the scrollbar. In Firefox and IE these work as expected, and return the same value (inclusive of the scrollbar).

Please comment on whether this behavior is a bug, or is intentional.

I can provide further details if needed.
