Border appears under the image.

Expected Results:  
Border (under the image) should not appear.

The description above says "img a, img a" which is just needless repetition.
I assume what you meant to write was "img a, a img" (which is what your test
case has.

"img a" does not apply (because your testcase does not have an <a> element
nested inside an <img> element).

"a img" does apply - but to the <img>, not to the <a>! So the image has a
"border: 0", but the <a> surrounding it still has a gray border, which is what
you see.

Therefore this bug report is invalid.
