HTML 5 strange img always adds 3px margin at bottom [duplicate]
When I change my website to
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
Every img element that is wrapped inside a DIV has a 3px bottom margin to it even though that margin is not defined in CSS. In other words, there are no style attributes that are causing that 3px bottom margin.
<div class="placeholder">
<img alt="" src="/haha.jpg" />
</div>
Now let's say haha.jpg is 50x50, and .placeholder is set to display: table. Strangely the height dimensions of .placeholder in my observation is 50x53...
Has anyone encountered this anomaly before and fixed it?
EDIT
Here is the JS FIDDLE

This problem is caused by the image behaving like a character of text (and so leaving a space below it where the hanging part of a "y" or "g" would go), and is solved by using the vertical-align CSS property to indicate that no such space is needed. Almost any value of vertical-align will do; I'm fond of middle, personally.
img {
vertical-align: middle;
}

I often solve this by giving the image element display:block or display:inline-block as appropriate.
it is solved my problem.
line-height: 0;
