I was thinkig the same way, but why doesconsole.log($(this).scrollTop()) = 1187console.log($(this).height()) = 1762it differs so much? For 575px if I have scrolled to the bottom of the page.Where are those 575px gone? Scroll bar can't be 576px :)

A:
Something like this should solve your problem:
$.getDocHeight = function(){
var D = document;
return Math.max(Math.max(D.body.scrollHeight, D.documentElement.scrollHeight), Math.max(D.body.offsetHeight, D.documentElement.offsetHeight), Math.max(D.body.clientHeight, D.documentElement.clientHeight));
};
alert( $.getDocHeight() );
Ps: Call that function every time you need it, the alert is for testing purposes..
