This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Reported by Anton Prowse 10.6.1 (height of inline, non-replaced elements) says: # The height of the content area should be based on the font, but this # specification does not specify how. For added emphasis, I'd like to see a note in 10.6.1 that the content area height of an inline box doesn't depend on its descendant boxes (neither in terms of their glyphs, font or line-height). This is a potential gotcha.
