CSS - Vertically Aligning Multiple Lines Of Text Next To Image

Hi,

Just upgraded my monitor and am now operating on a 1280*1024 resolution. Previous website I have built have been for 1024*768 resolutions.

Problem is now that some of my images are placed at the top of the screen when I want them in the middle... not with a load of blank space beneath them. I want the blank space equally around them.

Anyway, I'm specifically talking about the website I have: http://www.atari-music.co.uk

The front and home-pages suffer from this problem when viewed on > 1024*768 resolutions. I have attempted to fix the problem (though it is not in the code for the on-line version) by putting this into the style sheet:-

IMG.middle {
vertical-align: middle;
}

In the HTML for the image map I have:-

<IMG class="middle" src="images/home.jpg" height="570" width="760" alt="ATARI - The Official Website" border="0" usemap="#siteMap"/>

Am I not referencing the CSS code correctly? The image is still sitting, vertically aligned to the top.


Cheers,

Rob.

Using CSS, is it possible to vertically align centrally text to an image as you can using tables?

A simple example using a table would be

<table border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td><img border="0" src="image.gif" width="609"height="115"></td>
<td valign="middle">Ray did this</td>
</tr>
</table>

Using CSS so far I've got...

<p><img class="imglft" border="0" src="img.jpg" width="434" height="400" alt="my image">Ray did this>

The CSS for imglft is...

.imglft{
float: left;
margin-right: 30px;

}

I've tried putting the whole lot in a DIV and using text-align: middle and vertical-align: middle but that doesn't work.

You can see what I mean by comparing http://brisray.com/grad.htm or http://members.lycos.co.uk/brisray/grad.htm with http://brisray.com/ray/rgrad.htm or http://members.lycos.co.uk/brisray/ray/rgrad.htm

I am designing this page:

theticketsguide.com/sample

Scroll down to where the text reads, "Easy Navigation." I have (more or less) managed to vertically align this text with the image next to it, but I used padding instead of a cleaner, more exact "vertical-align" function. I've tried to put

vertical-align:middle

for the text, but it doesn't do anything. Any help as to what the right solution is to this? I don't want to use padding.

Thanks,

I started out working out a page thinking this *should* do what I want and lo and behold it did work in IE6

http://www.fogcat.co.uk/example/test002.html

But when looking at Firefox it goes all odd. If you remove all the internal "imagediv" div from the "imagechunk" div it nearly works but doesn't algin the "link text" like IE.

I'm told that display:inline-block is not properly supported, which is probably the root of my problems.

What I want a set of divs down the page (the "imagedivs") Each div will contain

An image - but that image will be nested inside a div - it's returned that way from a php function. Images may be of varying height so I can't use pixel values at top margins or anything like that. A link to another page The link should be positioned to the right of the image and aligned vertically with the centre of the image.

This is one of those things that's a doddle with tables, but I'm
trying to train myself to think CSS.

What obvious thing am I over looking?

Code:

+--------------------------------------+
| +----------------+                   |
| | .............. |                   |     ---  <div>
| | :            : |                   |     ...  <img>
| | :            : |   Link here       |
| | :            : |                   |
| | .............. |                   |
| +----------------+                   |
+--------------------------------------+
   
+--------------------------------------+
| +----------------+                   |
| | .............. |                   |    
| | :            : |                   |    
| | :            : |   Link here       |
| | :            : |                   |
| | .............. |                   |

Hi guys,

I am trying to display two forms with several elements on a page. I would like to place the two forms on the webpage so that one is displayed on the left and the other on the right of the screen.
Something like this

URL
http://craigbaldwin.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/52.jpg

I have written the following test and the forms are placed correctly inside the left and right divs.

Code:

<HTML>
<Head>
	<style type="text/css">
		div.wrapper {
		position: relative;
		clear: both;
		width: 100%;
		border : 1px solid #000000;
		}
		div.left {
		float: left;
		width: 50%;
		background: #ffffff;
		border : 1px solid #000006;

		}	
		div.right {
		float: right;
		width: 50%;
		background: #ffffff;
		border : 1px solid #000001;
		}
		
	</style>
</Head>
<Body>
	<div class="wrapper">Wrapper
		<div class="left">Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box Left Box </div>
		<div class="right">Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box Right Box </div>
	</div>
</Body>
</HTML>

A couple of problems with the above.
1. In Internet explorer the divs are aligned correctly but in firefox it gets all messy.
2. As long as the window is maximised then i the divs are aligned vertically correctly. If i resize the browser window then they are no longer aligned vertically. Is there a way to make them always next to each other from left to right even if the window is resized? (try resizing the window for the example i showed above)


Thanks

So I'm still on my quest to be able to create my 1st entirely CSS site, and need some help as I'm not sure how to do this. I want to be able to align a navigation list at the bottom right of the content area. Also while I'm at it, I want the site to be at a minimum 462px (just an example), but would like for it to increase in height if the content itself expands beyond the 462. And the navigation menu, I'd like to somehow keep at the bottom right of the viewable area.

Thanks... here's the code...

HTML Code:
Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<body>
<div class="outer">
  <div class="logo">
	  <img src="images/logo.gif" />
	</div>
	<div class="spacer">&nbsp;</div>
	<div class="nav">
	  <a href="#">Link 1</a><br />
		<a href="#">Link 2</a><br />
		<a href="#">Link 3</a><br />

I currently have been trying to align an h1 tag over top of a css background image. I have tried a whole bunch of things but have returned the code back to its most basic form

My external css div looks as follows:

#content_funny{
width: 315px;
height: 51px;
background-image:url(images/funnyvideos1.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
float:left;
clear:left;
margin:0px 0px 0px 0;
display:inline;
}

My index file is as follows

<div id="content_header"><div id="content_funny"><a href="http://www.tokenhumor.com/categories/7/funny_videos.html"><h1>Funny Videos</h1></a></div>


For some reason the text in its natural state is laying differently for IE and FF, preventing me from using any positioning lines within my external style sheet.

Any help with this is much appreciated, I m pulling my hair out

Hi all, I have a pesky little problem that I can not seem to figure out on my own.

I have a set up like this

PHP Code:
<span class='navitem'><a href='index.php'>
<img src='myimage.gif'>Go Home</a></span> 





My Css Code is

PHP Code:
#leftnavcontent .navitem {
    border-bottom:1px dotted #DADADA;
    font-size:12px;
    font-weight:normal;
    line-height:16px;
}

#leftnavcontent .navitem img {
    margin-right:5px;
    border:none;
} 





My problem is that the image is not aligning with the text. As in there is just a slight maybe 1 or 2 pixel border bottom from the image that makes it dip just above the navitem box which makes it look a little funky.

Any ideas?

I'm trying to figure out how to align the text with the text so that it text starts up and to the top right of the image. And I"m talking about the top middle div.

http://kansasoutlawwrestling.com/v3/index.html

I have a line item where I'm pulling in text and an image from a dB. I would like the text to align at the top and not sure how to do it.
Code:

<li>Song name&nbsp;<img src="beatles.jpg">&nbsp;Artist

Test page:
Played songs
I have tried margins but then the image moves and the text is always aligned at the bottom of the image.
Thanks for your help!

I am trying to put labels below images on my new site design. See: www.jwsuretybonds*com/jw09


I figured out how to get them vertically aligned, but I am having problems with the horizontal, as when I change the browser size, they move.


Here is one of the examples:
Code:

#homepage-bar h2.construction {
	position:fixed;
	top:225px;
	left:505px;
}

I tried changing to position: absolute; I also tried to use percentages on the left:


I know this is easy, but I can't find the fix after googling for 30 minutes. Help!

At http://www.rietgors.tudelft.nl/combo/ you can see what I'm trying to do. I'd like the two elements to have either the same top or bottom, or have both elements centered vertically in the enclosing DIV. Can this be done using just CSS?

I'm wworking on a CSS template and I'm trying to vertically align two divs.... one on top of the other with a five pixel margin between the two....

However, unless I use a bunch of HTML breaks (which will result in an uneven template), I can't figure out how to do it. I've tried to vertical-align them and etc. Any help is appreciated.

Oh, I know my code could be a bit more clean, this is just a comp.

I've also tested this on FF so far. I doubt IE will return favourable results either.

My example:

www.efacln.com/Untitled-1.html

My CSS code:

Code:

#container
{
	MARGIN: 5px;
}

#header_container
{
	border-color: black;
	BORDER-STYLE: solid;
	BORDER-WIDTH: thin;
	BORDER-LEFT: none;
	BORDER-RIGHT: none;
	
	WIDTH: 100%; 
}

#header_content
{
	BORDER-COLOR: black;
	BORDER-STYLE: solid;
	BORDER-WIDTH: thin;
	BORDER-TOP: none;
	BORDER-BOTTOM: none;
	
	WIDTH: 600px;
	HEIGHT: 100px;
	
	MARGIN-LEFT: auto;
	MARGIN-RIGHT: auto;
}

#kirk_news
{
	BORDER-COLOR: black;
	BORDER-STYLE: solid;
	BORDER-WIDTH: thin;
	
	WIDTH: 550px;
	HEIGHT: 100px;
	
	FLOAT: left;
	
	POSITION: absolute;
	
	MARGIN-TOP: 5px;
	MARGIN-RIGHT: 2.5px;
}

#navigationblock
{
	BORDER-COLOR: black;
	BORDER-STYLE: solid;
	BORDER-WIDTH: THIN;
	
	WIDTH: 410px;
	
	POSITION: relative;
	
	FLOAT: RIGHt;
	
	MARGIN-TOP: 5px;
	MARGIN-LEFT: 2.5px;
	
}

#scott_news
{
	BORDER-COLOR: black;
	BORDER-STYLE: solid;
	BORDER-WIDTH: thin;
	
	width: 410PX;
	
	MARGIN-TOP: 1 px;
	MARGIN-TOP: 5px;
}

</STYLE>
