[edit] Description
Typically, an element's offsetHeight is a measurement which includes the element borders, the element vertical padding, the element horizontal scrollbar (if present, if rendered) and the element CSS height.
For the document body object, the measurement includes total linear content height instead of the element CSS height. Floated elements extending below other linear content are ignored.
