Derk-Jan Hartman wrote this summary and suggestion: Dear all: due to the switch to HTML5, there might be some changes to the positioning of inline images. This is often apparent in the templates which positions a dot on top of a map. The dot might now appear around 5 pixels lower than before. This problem can be fixed by setting in the style of the parent element of the image: "line-height: 0;"
Examples of fixes follow: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ALocation_map%7E&diff=513691160&oldid=508145691 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3AGeobox_map&diff=513690913&oldid=509404175 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3AGeobox2_map&diff=513690761&oldid=412855957 For those interested: this is the particular comment that describes why in our previous rendering we did NOT have to set this, and why we now need to set it explicitly: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/quirks-mode/raw-file/tip/Overview.html#the-line-height-calculation-quirk Thanks, DJ! -- Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation On 09/06/2012 12:15 PM, Rob Lanphier wrote: > Forwarded as this is of potentially wider interest.
