1301395 - <img> alt text overlaps, breaks, is too low

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[scratch65535]

Attachment: bad_img_alt_text_placement.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0
Build ID: 20151216175450

Steps to reproduce:

I include smilies with alt= text labels


Actual results:

the alt labels are positioned wrong, sometimes very wrong. multi-word ones are folded, all more or less overlap the following text.


Expected results:

They should be baseline aligned with the other text regardless of any massaging of the <img>'s position to achieve a visual vertical-align:middle (*visual* middle is not the same as slug-middle)

Could you attach a simple testcase to the bug report, please.

I'm not completely sure what you have in mind for a test case if that snippet of screen shot isn't sufficient.

some HTML code to reproduce the issue.

Okay, probably a false alarm.  I thought I'd turned off all the flavoring, but apparently something is still active.

Reporter: have you been able to resolve this, where we can close this issue? Or will you send in some HTML code? Thanks.

I'm still experimenting, but I think it was a strange artifact.  I'll close it for now.
