Vertical Gaps Appearing - jQuery Masonry - (seamle

Question

This question has already been asked in a different situation.

I am trying to achieve a seamless photo grid with jQuery Masonry.

Check out my fiddle:

There is a vertical gap. Why?

Answer 1

You should make the <img/> a float.

Answer 2

Display your images as block-level elements:

.ct-coll-item img {
  display: block;
}

See if this works: http://jsfiddle.net/drw158/sAkjv/1/

As for the why, I have no idea. My guess would be because the images are inline elements, but that isn't a direct explanation.

Answer 3

The problem is your doctype. Change it to XHTML 1.0 Transitional then everything is fine
