 ## Examples
 
+### Detecting overflowing content
+
+In this example, we use the `scrollWidth` property to check if the content of an element is overflowing its boundaries. We have two `div` elements, the first with a width of `100px`, and the second without a fixed width. Their content is exactly the same, and we display a message about whether each one is overflowing its container.
