HTML element which defaults to display:inline-block?

css, html

Solution

From what I can tell the `<img>` tag is the only `inline-block` by default. To be on the safe side I would recommend a class, you never know when changing all elements of a certain type will come back to bite you. Or, you could always make up your own tag and assign `display:inline-block;` to it. This way you aren't changing the default functionality of standard elements...

EDIT

It also appears that `button`, `textarea`, `input`, and `select` elements are also `inline-block`

Sources:

According to this `img` is `inline-block` http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/img.html#img-display

And here claims that `button`, `textarea`, etc. are as well: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/sample.html

EDIT #2

While the source above claims that `img` tags are `inline-block` it seems (thanks to Alohci) that they are just `inline` http://jsfiddle.net/AQ2yp/

The following were tested in Firefox:

`button` is `inline-block`: http://jsfiddle.net/GLS4P/

`textarea` is `inline`: http://jsfiddle.net/235vc/

`input` is `inline`: http://jsfiddle.net/RFKe8/

`select` is `inline-block`: http://jsfiddle.net/5B4Gs/

Problem

`<div>` defaults to `block` `<span>` defaults to `inline` Is there one that defaults to `inline-block`? If not, what special tag name would be appropriate for me to apply 'inline-block' using CSS? Or should I stick to using a class?
