[css-d] vertical-align baseline issue?

2015-07-29 Thread Angela French
Hello,
I have an h1 with a span applied to the first three words to make them smaller. 
I want the bottom of the text to line up those with the rest of the heading and 
it is not.

Html:  h1span class=policyManualFirstLineSBCTC Policy Manual/span 
Chapter 4: Instructional Program and Course Development/h1


CSS:
 h1 span.policyManualFirstLine
{
font-size:.65em;
vertical-align:baseline!important; /* tried this, no effect */
padding-bottom:0;  /* tried this, no effect */
}

Is what I'm looking for possible? Am I not doing it right?


Thanks for any ideas.

Adjust the line-height not vertically align bottom or padding.

Best,

Can you provide a test case illustrating your problem? Failing that, you'll 
need to provide more context…

By default your span *should* rest on the baseline of its parent element, 
unless there are rules somewhere that prevents it.

Look at this test case, the span rests on the baseline:

(the red line indicates the baseline)
