this one is great:

you can't programmatically receive the height sans browser bar. but you can
detect if the ios browser is in standalone mode for full-screen (if your app
is using it). for android its trial and error, the 480x800(854) devices i
know only have a thin bar at the top whereas the galaxy tab has a permanent
footer (at least the one I have seen).
