1.8.3.1

After a brief review of how the 0.4 core code works. I realized that it is possible to capture the area above the scrollbar (hidden on screen view, but visible on document). By inserting the element's exact position when cliping element to newCanvas. (Using jQuery (element) .offset () can do this)

I have fork v0.4 and made a patch with the modifications from @InfernoZeus and added a new offset.

See the difference here: ultra-bugs/html2canvas@84284cc

Or use the built-in bower with the package name: z-html2canvas#0.4.3
