<meta content="For inline non-replaced elements (such as the span element in this testcase), the box used for vertical-alignment is the box whose height is the 'line-height' (containing the box's glyphs and the half-leading on each side). 'vertical-align: text-top' will align the top of such box with the top of the parent's content area and not with the bottom of the parent's box." name="assert" />
