CSS - Simple One I Think - Vertical Navigation Bar - I Want To Vertical Align The Text
Hi,
Does anyone know how to veritcally align text using CSS? like <tr valign='middle'> when using tables. My page is on: http://www.3003online.com/demos/ecoceylon/v2/ You can see a difference in the "Home - About Us - Products - Contact Us" links when viewing from IE and Mozilla Firefox. Basically, I would like the text to be centered vertically in the bar... but CSS by default puts it on top. I tried adding padding,which helped in IE... but Firefox still shows the links a bit higher than they should be.,... any ideas how to fix this? Also, a different problem in case anyone knows how to fix it... you can see a small brown bar on the top bar. It is 50px in height. But I have no idea how to make its width as wide as the remainder of the page (this would change with different resolutions). The main content of the page is 760px wide. I would like a brown box next to that, which is 50px in height and the remainder width. Any ideas? "width: auto;" doesn't work unfortunately [ this is a follow up to my previous thread http://forums.devshed.com/showthread.php?t=270438 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Similar TutorialsHow exactly can i vertically align text in css, i can't seem to find an easy way to do it, i basically want my text to be in the middle of a divs height, so much easier in tables heh. Tried padding but that then adds to the height, making it pointless for this use hi. i'm trying to have some text in a div, but also i want the text align to the bottom of the div. something like. but i don't know how... have a look at http://www.desorden.net/prueba.html any ideas? thanks in advance I have a <p> tag with text inside of it with a height of 20px and width of 100px. Horizontal text alignment works fine within in, but I want the text to sit in the middle of the tag and I just can't do it. It defaults to sitting at the top. I try vertical-align: middle, but that doesn't work. None of the the vertical aligns do anything in fact I have a td with a div inside it and I'm trying to vertically align the text in the div. The Div has a background image so the height of the div is important. For whatever reason vertical-align:middle just wont work. I've tried in both IE and FF and nothing I do seems to work. Here is my code Code: .globalNav, .globalNav td {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
width: 100%;
height:28px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #94AEC1;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
.globalDiv{
color:#fff;
width:100%;
height:28px;
background:#94AEC1 url(../images/grad_bar.gif);
background-color:#94AEC1;
margin:0px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px;
overflow:hidden;
}
.globalDiv a{
font-size:10pt;
color:#fff;
}
.globalDiv a:link,.globalDiv a:visited{
text-decoration:underline;
}
.globalDiv a:hover{
text-decoration:none;
}
Thanks im sure this may be answered somewhere on this forum inside another post, but using search, i could not find anyone who had actually asked this specific question... i found a few posts back in 2002 that never got a responce... i'd hope we'd have an answer 3 years later... anyhow, my question is quite simple... i think.. i have a div that is 50px in height, and has some text inside it.. the text aligned center, and now i want it to vAlign center.. but the CSS doesnt seem to work... my problem is that the text in that field changes quite often, and having to constantly change margins in CSS would be a pain. anyhow, now for a snippit Code:
.advertboxtitle {
margin:10px 0px 0px 110px;
height:50px;
border:1px dashed #900;
font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:14px;
color:#CCFFFF;
font-weight:bold;
text-align:center;
}
.advertboxtitlevalign {
vertical-align:middle;
}
Code: <div class="advertboxtitle"> <span class="advertboxtitlevalign">From X-Box to Xbox</span> </div> anyhow, reason why it is in a span is because i read that inline elements react to vertical-align:middle... but apparently not... anyhow, here is a link.. http://defunctgames.com/helpfix/middle.htm the text needs to be align verticaly in the dashed red box. thanks Never had a reason to use this property...not sure I'm understanding it correctly. My intent was to have the the nav links sit on the baseline of the 50px height container. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! .css #toplinks { float:left; width:580px; background-color:#fffff; height: 50px; text-align:right; vertical-align:bottom;} html <div id="toplinks"> Home | Preferences | Help | Site Map | Contact Us | Log Out</div> I'm wondering how to "vertical-align: middle" the text in the anchor tags. I haven't got that part to work. Code:
a.aMenuLinks:link
{
color: #666666;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
font-size: 8pt;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
text-indent: 15px;
width: 100%;
height: 25px;
display: block;
}
Thanks... Hi, I am trying to use the vertical-align property to make some text appear in the middle of a div (set float:left). However it is not working. Following is some sample code I have done for testing: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>ccc</title>
<style>
div{
width:16.7em;
height:6.8em;
border:1px solid black;
vertical-align:middle;
float:left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>hello</div>
</body>
</html>
Is this possible? Thanks and Regards, Sim085 Hello to all of you, I am doing my first steps in respect to CSS programming and wonder if I can get some hint here. I have created a table, with two different line colors, and a changing line background color with hover. Basically everything works as expected - just the vertical-align command does not respond at all. Am I doing something wrong? What could be the reason, and how can I continue investigating? I am using the CSS stylesheet, in connection with a Joomla 1.5 CMS. Please see the code below: Code: table.general {
text-align: left;
vertical-align: top;
width: 100%;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
table.general th {
text-align: center;
font-size: 15px;
color: white;
font-style:bold;
height: 30px;
background-color:#95B3D7;
border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;
}
table.general tr.row1 {
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
table.general tr.row2 {
background-color: #e0e0e0;
}
table.general tr.row1:hover {
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
table.general tr.row2:hover {
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
table.general td {
border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;
padding: 4px;
}
The classes are being used in the following form: Code: <table style="width: 320px;" class="general"> <col span="4" width="80"></col> <tbody> <tr> <th>head A</th> <th>head B</th> <th>head C</th> <th>Alface</th> </tr> <tr class="row1"> <td>Topic A</td> <td>65</td> <td>215</td> <td>35</td> </tr> <tr class="row2"> <td>Topic B</td> <td>2</td> <td>2,3</td> <td>1,2</td> </tr> <tr class="row1"> <td>Topic C</td> <td>68</td> <td>55</td> <td>13</td> </tr> <tr class="row2"> <td>Topic D</td> <td>44</td> <td>50</td> <td>33</td> </tr> <tr class="row1"> <td>etc.</td> <td>494</td> <td>611</td> <td>238</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> Thank you in advance for your kindness! How can i make #mydiv DIV (the main layout div), be vertically aligned to middle? http://www.dinal.ru/new/max/index2.htm I've read a lot of docs about vertical alignment in internet, but I haven't found a good cross-browser solution, which doesnt't destroy my current layout. Thank you in advance Artashes for example if there is a container div which holds an inner div, if i want the content of the inner div to appear exactly at the bottom edge of the inner div i have used the following code, #outer{ position: relative; float: left; width: 900px; height: 200px; } #outer .inner{ position: relative; float: left; width: 500px; height: 200px; vertical-align: bottom; } however the content of the inner div is starting at its default location which is top left of the inner div instead of using margin-top or padding-top, or positioning methods for the inner div to position the content at the bottom edge can the vertical-align: bottom; be used as this will be very accurate placed at the bottom edge even if the content increases the content will always appear at the bottom edge, unlike other methods where the margin-top, padding-top, and positioning, these values will have to be changed whenever content increases or decreases. please advice. thanks. What I'm trying to do... I have some navigation links, a few pictures, and someone's name on the left hand side of the page. I want everything except for the name to be at the top.... the name is to be at the bottom. Is there a specific way to accomplish this? The content area will generally extend as high as 600 or so px, so would like the name to appear at the very bottom lined up with the content box. Thanks. Not sure exactly what code you need to see, but here's the left hand column: CSS: Code:
body {width:770px;
height:100%;
}
.nav_links {vertical-align:top; width:150px; }
.nav_links a{display:block; border-top:1px solid black; text-decoration:none;}
HTML: Code: <!-- Left Nav Menu --> <div class="nav_links"> Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 Link 4 Link 5 </div> <!-- End Left Nav Menu --> <!-- Misc. Pictures (Left Column)--> <div> <div style="float:right;"> <img src="images/left_pic_1.jpg" alt="Pic1" style="width:50px; margin-bottom:10px;" /><br /> <img src="images/left_pic_2.jpg" alt="Pic2" style="width:50px;" /> </div> </div> <div style="clear:both;"> <div style="float:right;"> <img src="images/left_pic_3.jpg" alt="Pic3" style=" width:50px; margin-bottom:10px;" /><br /> <img src="images/left_pic_4.jpg" alt="Pic4" style="width:50px;" /> </div> </div> <!-- End Misc. Pictures (Left Column) --> <!-- Name --> <div class="name" style="vertical-align:bottom;"> First M. Last </div> <!-- End Name --> I'm trying to put a line of text on the bottom of a box. Code: <div style="width:500px;height:500px;background:black;vertical-align:bottom;"> This is a black box </div> <div style="width:500px;height:500px;background:black;vertical-align:baseline;"> This is a black box </div> What the above code displays: Code: ------------------------- | This is a black box | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ------------------------- What I want it to display: Code: ------------------------- | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a black box | ------------------------- Is not working for me, or I'm not using it right. Here is my problem: http://www.kingtoad.net/development/kingtoad.net/ I want the "navigation" to align to the top even with the "content". I can't seem to get it up there though. Any suggestions would be nice. Hi I want to know if it is possible to vertical align the text in these div tags and how it's done.

Greets, dabomb_gent I know a lot of people have made posts about vertical aligning but nearly all were involving text. I'm trying to vertically align a small image, but every time i do it within the img tag it screws up the adjacent text on IE and only IE. I know it has to do with how vertical align is supposed to be used, specific blocks or inline or something. How would I go about vertically aligning that small arrow image on the top properly. http://chics.onivertneb.com/align.htm I have a div with this ID: #sml_image_container { margin: 2px; padding: 2px; height: 70px; width: 70px; border: 1px dashed #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #FFFFFF; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: middle; } I'd like to have a div work like a cell in a table that is 70px by 70px - with the text centered both horiz. and vert.. But I can't get it. Is the above the correct use of the "vertical-align"? I need the CSS equivilent to <td align="center" valign="middle"> in a DIV. I've got an image that is 75px high. Right beside it, I have a H1. I want to vertically align the H1 in the middle of the image. Vertical align doesn't work, and for some reason, setting the line height to the height of the image doesn't work either. I think this is a pretty basic css question... How do you get an image to vertically align to the top? I've tried "vertical-align: top;" but no dice. Here's where I want to apply this: http://www.ergopro.com See, I want the credit card image (up top) to vertically align to the top, flush with the TrustWave logo. How is this done? Much thanks in advance! Okay, I have an unordered list of images (im usings lists for ajax reasons). I have formatted the list to look much like a 4x4 table. Each cell has an image in it. I need to make the images vertical-align middle. at the moment the code i have is this: Code: <ul style="margin:0;padding:0;list-style-type:none;"> <li style="text-align: center; width: 140px; background-color: #e7e7e7; height: 150px;float: left;"><div style="height: 150px;"><a href="#"><img src="image.gif" style="vertical-align: middle;" ></a></div></li> <li style="text-align: center; width: 140px; background-color: #e7e7e7; height: 150px;float: left;"><div style="height: 150px;"><a href="#"><img src="image.gif" style="vertical-align: middle;" ></a></div></li> <li style="text-align: center; width: 140px; background-color: #e7e7e7; height: 150px;float: left;"><div style="height: 150px;"><a href="#"><img src="image.gif" style="vertical-align: middle;" ></a></div></li> <li style="text-align: center; width: 140px; background-color: #e7e7e7; height: 150px;float: left;"><div style="height: 150px;"><a href="#"><img src="image.gif" style="vertical-align: middle;" ></a></div></li> </ul> I added the div in hopes that this would help the vertical align, however it still aligns at top. Any ideas? I MUST use the list. Thanks for any help! |
