In CSS Flexbox, why are there no "justify-items" and "justify-self" properties?
(6 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have a flexbox container row and there are three items inside. I want one of them to be in the very center but I want the other two 2 to be slightly over it and to the most left and to the most right respectively. I want something like this:
I tried with aligning and justify content but it did not work.
Thanks in advance.
Here is an illustration of what you want. Just give the middle element a margin-top:
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
.container div {
width: 50px;
height: 100px;
background-color: red;
}
.center {
margin-top: 50px;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="right"></div>
<div class="center"></div>
<div class="left"></div>
</div>

Since .menu is a block-level element, it is naturally going to take up the maximum width of the row (100%). Therefore, you can set max-width on the element, to limit this behavior and stop at 1100px, or 100%, whichever comes first. As Temani mentioned above, you can center the enter element using margin: auto. I wrote out the margins longhand, since you are concerned with adding auto to only the left and right margins (no need to set top and bottom).
.menu {
display: flex;
max-width: 1100px;
background: red;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
<div class="navbar">
<div class="menu">

How do I vertically center text with CSS? [duplicate]
(37 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I need to vertically align a text in center inside a div. I have found many of way, but none of them respects exact content of the text - I am talking about small graphical parts below text line - letter e.g. "ygq" etc., which is missing when e.g. capital letters are used "YGQ", but it's still counted when text is displayed. I tried:
.button {
height: 20px;
line-height: 20px;
}
<div class="button">My text</div>
<div class="button">MY TEXT</div>
and the other way
.button {
height: 20px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<div class="button"><p>My text</p></div>
<div class="button"><p>MY TEXT</p></div>
I use padding attribute, when I am sure, no graphics below the line will be presented. Is there a way, how to align text generally based on its exact content?
Question How do I vertically center text with CSS? doesn't answer this as the solution is based on "line-height" which still takes count graphics below line as I mentioned in my question.
To make your elements vertical center, you can use display:flex with the parent container .button and apply margin:auto to child element.
.button{
height: 150px;
display: flex;
background-color: aliceblue;
}
.button p {
margin: auto;
}
<div class="button">
<p>My text</p>
</div>
Try this::
.button{
display: flex;
justify-content: center; /* align horizontal */
align-items: center; /* align vertical */
}
<div class="button">
<p>My text</p>
</div>
You can use position and transform to align an item vertically inside an other
.button {
position: relative;
}
.button p {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
/* For horizontal align */
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
<div class="button">
<p>My text</p>
</div>

Align inline-block DIVs to top of container element
(5 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I'm struggling a bit with this CSS-issue: http://jsfiddle.net/timkl/JbEX8/
I want two divs to align horizontally using "display: inline-block", however when I add text to one of the divs, the alignment is off.
Is there a way to make the two divs align without resorting to floats?
This is my markup:
<div class="box">
<p>Some text</p>
</div><!-- /box -->
<div class="box">
<!-- No text -->
</div><!-- /box -->
This is my CSS:
body {
color: gray;
}
.box {
background: #ccc;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
display: inline-block;
}
Check out my example on jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/timkl/JbEX8/
Add vertical-align to class box:
vertical-align: middle;
Also see the updated jsfiddle.
You should float them:
.box {
float: left;
background: #ccc;
height: 100px;
width: 200px;
display: inline-block;
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/JbEX8/1/
Do note that since you didn't define margins, there is no spacing between them.

How can I vertically align elements in a div?
(28 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I'm trying to make a small username and password input box.
I would like to ask, how do you vertically align a div?
What I have is:
<div id="Login" class="BlackStrip floatright">
<div id="Username" class="floatleft">Username<br>Password</div>
<div id="Form" class="floatleft">
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="text" border="0"><br>
<input type="password" border="0">
</form>
</div>
</div>
How can I make the div with id Username and Form to vertically align itself to the center? I've tried to put:
vertical-align: middle;
in CSS for the div with id Login, but it doesn't seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.
The best approach in modern browsers is to use flexbox:
#Login {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
Some browsers will need vendor prefixes. For older browsers without flexbox support (e.g. IE 9 and lower), you'll need to implement a fallback solution using one of the older methods.

Using CSS Flexible Boxes
This can be done with 3 lines of CSS and is compatible back to (and including) IE9:
.element {
position: relative;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}

You can vertically align a div in another div. See this example on JSFiddle or consider the example below.
HTML
<div class="outerDiv">
<div class="innerDiv"> My Vertical Div </div>
</div>
CSS
.outerDiv {
display: inline-flex; // <-- This is responsible for vertical alignment
height: 400px;
background-color: red;
color: white;
}
.innerDiv {
margin: auto 5px; // <-- This is responsible for vertical alignment
background-color: green;
}
The .innerDiv's margin must be in this format: margin: auto *px;
[Where, * is your desired value.]
display: inline-flex is supported in the latest (updated/current version) browsers with HTML5 support.
It may not work in Internet Explorer :P :)
Always try to define a height for any vertically aligned div (i.e. innerDiv) to counter compatibility issues.
I'm pretty late to the party, but I came up with this myself and it's one of my favorite quick hacks for vertical alignment. It's crazy simple, and easy to understand what's going on.
You use the :before css attribute to insert a div into the beginning of the parent div, give it display:inline-block and vertical-align:middle and then give those same properties to the child div. Since vertical-align is for alignment along a line, those inline divs will be considered a line.
Make the :before div height:100%, and the child div will automatically follow and align in the middle of a very tall "line."
.parent:before, .child {
display:inline-block;
vertical-align:middle;
}
.parent:before {
content:""; // so that it shows up
height:100%; // so it takes up the full height
}
Here's a fiddle to demonstrate what I'm talking about. The child div can be any height, and you never have to modify its margins/paddings.
And here's a more explanatory fiddle.
If you're not fond of :before, you can always manually put in a div.
<div class="parent">
<div class="before"></div>
<div class="child">
content
</div>
</div>
And then just reassign .parent:before to .parent .before
If you know the height, you can use absolute positioning with a negative margin-top like so:
#Login {
width:400px;
height:400px;
position:absolute;
top:50%;
left:50%;
margin-left:-200px; /* width / -2 */
margin-top:-200px; /* height / -2 */
}
Otherwise, there's no real way to vertically center a div with just CSS
In my firefox and chrome work this:
CSS:
display: flex;
justify-content: center; // vertical align
align-items: center; // horizontal align
I found this site useful: http://www.vanseodesign.com/css/vertical-centering/
This worked for me:
HTML
<div id="parent">
<div id="child">Content here</div>
</div>
CSS
#parent {
padding: 5% 0;
}
#child {
padding: 10% 0;
}
#GáborNagy's comment on another post was the simplest solution I could find and worked like a charm for me, since he brought a jsfiddle I'm copying it here with a small addition:
CSS:
#wrapper {
display: table;
height: 150px;
width: 800px;
border: 1px solid red;
}
#cell {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
HTML:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="cell">
<div class="content">
Content goes here
</div>
</div>
</div>
If you wish to also align it horizontally you'd have to add another div "inner-cell" inside the "cell" div, and give it this style:
#inner-cell{
width: 250px;
display: block;
margin: 0 auto;
}
Vertically aligning has always been tricky.
Here I have covered up some method of vertically aligning a div.
http://jsfiddle.net/3puHE/
HTML:
<div style="display:flex;">
<div class="container table">
<div class="tableCell">
<div class="content"><em>Table</em> method</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container flex">
<div class="content new"><em>Flex</em> method<br></div>
</div>
<div class="container relative">
<div class="content"><em>Position</em> method</div>
</div>
<div class="container margin">
<div class="content"><em>Margin</em> method</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
em{font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;}
.container {
width:200px;height:200px;background:#ccc;
margin: 5px; text-align: center;
}
.content{
width:100px; height: 100px;background:#37a;margin:auto;color: #fff;
}
.table{display: table;}
.table > div{display: table-cell;height: 100%;width: 100%;vertical-align: middle;}
.flex{display: flex;}
.relative{position: relative;}
.relative > div {position: absolute;top: 0;left: 0;right: 0;bottom: 0;}
.margin > div {position:relative; margin-top: 50%;top: -50px;}
http://jsfiddle.net/dvL512e7/
Unless the aligned div has fixed height, try using the following CSS to the aligned div:
{
margin: auto;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
display: table;
}
I needed to specify min-height
#login
display: flex
align-items: center
justify-content: center
min-height: 16em
if you are using fix height div than you can use padding-top according your design need.
or you can use top:50%. if we are using div than vertical align does not work so we use padding top or position according need.
simplest way to center your div element is to use this class with following properties.
.light {
margin: auto;
width: 50%;
border: 3px solid green;
padding: 10px;
}
Centering the child elements in a div. It works for all screen sizes
#parent {
background-color: red;
height: 160px;
display: flex;
/*vertical-align */
align-items: center;
/*horizontal align*/
justify-content: center;
}
#child {
background-color: orange;
height: 20px;
padding: 10px;
}
<div id="parent">
<div id="child">Content here</div>
</div>
I found a way that works great for me. The next script inserts an invisible image (same as bgcolor or a transparant gif) with height equal to half the size of the white-space on the screen. The effect is a perfect vertical-alignment.
Say you have a header div (height=100) and a footer div (height=50) and the content in the main div that you would like to align has a height of 300:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
var screen = window.innerHeight;
var content = 150 + 300;
var imgheight = ( screen - content) / 2 ;
document.write("<img src='empty.jpg' height='" + imgheight + "'>");
</script>
You place the script just before the content that you want to align!
In my case the content I liked to align was an image (width=95%) with an aspect ratio of 100:85 (width:height).Meaning the height of the image is 85% of it's width. And the Width being 95% of the screenwidth.
I therefore used:
var content = 150 + ( 0.85 * ( 0.95 * window.innerWidth ));
Combine this script with
<body onResize="window.location.href = window.location.href;">
and you have a smooth vertical alignment.
Hope this works for you too!
have you try this one?
.parentdiv {
margin: auto;
position: absolute;
top: 0; left: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0;
height: 300px; // at least you have to specify height
}
hope this helps
divs can't be vertically aligned that way, you can however use margins or position:relative to modify its location.
