why does the PNG have a grey border in Google Chrome and IE?
Also, why isn't it visible in FireFox?
HTML
<html>
<head>
<title>Inline Border</title>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
.inline-image {
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
background: url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAABAAAAAQCAYAAAAf8/9hAAAAfklEQVR42mNgoDZITk4WosiAtLS0M6mpqb1Amp9cAy4B8X8gfpWenp5MiQEwfB6IbSgxAIaXArEcJQaA8Ddg+NQVFhZykmsADG8MDQ1lJseA5wQDFocBP0FRm5WVxUNOGGwEJi4VcmLhKtC5HuSkg8NA5+bjDCRCAG8UDUoAAIw8kVdwMG+3AAAAAElFTkSuQmCC) 0px 0px no-repeat no-repeat;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<img class="inline-image" />
</body>
</html>

If you want to user background-image, you should use div tag.
Otherwise, If you want to user img tag in this stituation, you should add src attribute with transparent image.

Check this jsfiddle:http://fiddle.jshell.net/Nr5tb/7/.I Hope you got your answer from this.
You have an img element that doesn't have a src attribute, but it does have a background-image style applied. I'd say that the gray border is the 'placeholder' for where the image would be, if you'd specified a src attribute. If you don't want a 'foreground' image, then don't use an img tag as I mention in my jsfiddle

You need add one more style in css
.inline-image {
display: block;
}
or you need to change the <img>
tag to <div>
