锚标签底部的空白

Question

I have an tag surrounding an image. I have a border set on the div that the tag is in. I have both margin and padding set to 0 but for some reason my tag is still about 3 pixels taller than my image. This leaves a bit of space between the image and the border, which destroys the look that I want to accomplish.

What am I doing wrong? I have tested in both FireFox and Chrome with the same results. Thanks

Answer 1

The image is display: inline so it is treated like a character and sits on the baseline. The gap is caused by the space provided for the descender (which you find on letters like j, g, y and p).

Adjust the vertical-align with CSS: img{vertical-align: bottom}

Answer 2

如果元素没有兄弟元素， display:block就足够了。

Answer 3

I had the same issue and i fixed it by adding to the 'a' tag display: block; and font-size: 0px;

Answer 4

I fixed mine by adding

a {
 display:inherit
}

Hope this helps

Answer 5

December 2021 Solution

As announced by several people, css :has() selector was implemented. So this issue could be solved for anchors which "has" images as a direct child:

a:has(> img) {
  font-size: 0;
}

At the moment I am writing this reply, it is only supported by Safari TP but probably this table will be greener soon.
