Description

In IE9, if the parent element has the pseudo class :first-line, jQuery's offset() will return incorrect values. The values appears to be the window's offset.

I have a fiddle.. http://jsfiddle.net/TheSharpieOne/g8RFp/

Very good test case!

This seems like it might be a "can't fix" because the actual issue is in the native getBoundingClientRect method in IE9 and IE10, which offset relies on.

Here's a fiddle with getBoundingClientRect used: http://jsfiddle.net/g8RFp/11/

Doesn't look like this got fixed for IE10, let's hope for IE11. There's still no reasonable way for us to detect/fix and it's an edge case, so the resolution stands
