What does "a" stand for in font: 0/0 a;

Viewed 12313

I was referring a video tutorial where the designer used font: 0/0 a; for image replacement, so I get that 0 is the font-size, another 0 is the line-height but designer skips the a part just by saying that's an hack.

So what does that a exactly do there?
