Note. For details about safari bug, see here.
Note. Refer to the old saying of foreigners (source ):
"-Remove parent scroll unless that parent is inline or a table
To work around und opera inline/table scrollleft/top bug"
Fixed in opera 9.5. (also, opera 9.5 supports getboundingclientrect
And getclientrects.) Finally, for more information about Dom compatibility, see the summary of PPK (how is it true ).
