getClientRects()

<h3>A paragraph with a span inside</h3>
<p>
  Both the span and the paragraph have a border set. The client rects are in
  red. Note that the p has only one border box, while the span has multiple
  border boxes.
</p>

<div>
  <strong>Original</strong>
  <p>
    <span>Paragraph that spans multiple lines</span>
  </p>
</div>

<div>
  <strong>p's rect</strong>
  <p class="withClientRectsOverlay">
    <span>Paragraph that spans multiple lines</span>
  </p>
</div>

<div>
  <strong>span's rect</strong>
  <p>
    <span class="withClientRectsOverlay"
      >Paragraph that spans multiple lines</span
    >
  </p>
</div>

<h3>A list</h3>
<p>
  Note that the border box doesn't include the number, so neither do the client
  rects.
</p>

<div>
  <strong>Original</strong>
  <ol>
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
  </ol>
</div>

<div>
  <strong>ol's rect</strong>
  <ol class="withClientRectsOverlay">
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
  </ol>
</div>

<div>
  <strong>each li's rect</strong>
  <ol>
    <li class="withClientRectsOverlay">Item 1</li>
    <li class="withClientRectsOverlay">Item 2</li>
  </ol>
</div>

<h3>A table with a caption</h3>
<p>
  Although the table's border box doesn't include the caption, the client rects
  do include the caption.
</p>
