I don't think that http://test.csswg.org/source/contributors/microsoft/submitted/Chapter_9/inline-formatting-context-010.xht really tests its assertion: "A line box is always tall enough to contain all the boxes in the line" The test contains two spans with the same font-size and different line-height. The black boxes are two X characters, and the blue boxes show the spans background visible through the space characters. >From 10.6.1 "The vertical padding, border and margin of an inline, non-replaced box start at the top and bottom of the content area, not the 'line-height'. But only the 'line-height' is used when calculating the height of the line box." So, I think that showing the background of the two spans the test shows nothing about the height of the resulting line box. It simply shows that line-height has no effect on 'characters height' and 'content area height' of inline boxes. Best regards, Bruno -- Bruno Fassino http://www.brunildo.org/test
