Gentle, individualistic and very loyal, Birman cats fall between Siamese and Persian in character. If you admire cats that are non aggressive, that enjoy being with humans and tend to be on the quiet side, you may well find that Birman cats are just the felines for you.
All Birmans have colorpointed features, dark coloration of the face, ears, legs and tail.

[edit] Specification
Not part of any W3C specification.
[edit] Notes
clientHeight is a non-standard, HTML-specific property introduced in the Internet Explorer object model.
offsetLeft returns the position the upper left edge of the element; not necessarily the 'real' left edge of the element. This is important for span elements in flowed text that wraps from one line to the next. The span may start in the middle of the page and wrap around to the beginning of the next line. The offsetLeft will refer to the left edge of the start of the span, not the left edge of text at the start of the second line. Therefore, a box with the left, top, width and height of offsetLeft, offsetTop, offsetWidth and offsetHeight will not be a bounding box for a span with wrapped text. (And, I can't figure out how to find the leftmost edge of such a span, sigh.)
