CSS - Align Some Of The Text Top And Right

How 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

I have some text in a DIV that is updated dynamically with removeChild() and appendChild(). I've tried numerous combinations but I can't seem to get it to work correctly.

CSS Code:
Original - CSS Code div.chatlayer { position: absolute; top: -50px; left: 50px; border: 1px solid black; -moz-border-radius: 10px; padding: 5px; background-color: white; min-width: 100px; width: auto; text-align: center; visibility: hidden; }

  

 div.chatlayer {


   position:             absolute;


   top:                  -50px;


   left:                 50px;


   border:               1px solid black;


   -moz-border-radius:   10px;


   padding:              5px;


   background-color:     white;


   min-width:            100px;


   width:                auto;


   text-align:           center;


   visibility:           hidden;


 } 

Confused yet?

What's the best way to accomplish this?
page
testimonials.css
Main.CSS

If you look at the page, you will see that I have the "signature" of the testimonial giver aligned right, but I would like the two p elements to be aligned along their left edge as well (but on the right side of the page, with everything flowing around any images)...

I tried floating them right, which and clearing the floats, but then the testimonials don't flow around the images... can this be done without getting divitis?

I have a row of icons (for navigation, with a text description underneath them) I am trying to break out of table design so I want these divs aligned next to each other, with the image/text centered.

Everything looks pretty peachy... but in FF the text such as "Candidates" underneath the icon floats to the left because of the parent float.. it ignores the text-align: center. In other browsers it works but not in FF any help? Also if anyone has a better way of writing this code I would be open to suggestions since I am slowly breaking away from table design.

Thanks!


Code:

.main #header {
	background: #FFFFFF;
	padding: 0 10px 0 10px;  
	border-bottom: 1px solid black;
	border-top: 1px solid black;
}
.icon_nav{
	font-size: 12px;
	float: left;
	text-align: center;
	margin-right: 12px;
	border: 1px solid black;
}

Code:

<div id="header">
    <div style="float: left">
        <img src="images/logo.png"  align="left" style="margin-right: 4px"/>
        <div style="color: #992204; font-size: 18px">XYZ Company</div>
        <div style="color: #992204; font-size: 14px">Professional Company</div>
        <div style="color: #992204; font-size: 12px">481-555-5555</div>
    </div>
    
<div style="float: right;">
    <div class="icon_nav"><img src="images/icons/home.png" /><br />Home</div>
    <div class="icon_nav"><img src="images/icons/employers.png" /><br />Employers</div>

</div>
    
    <br style="clear: both;" />
    <!-- end #header -->
</div>

Hi, I have a list of items a bullet on the left --> check.gif (13 X 12) and I'm totally new with CSS...
but my check aligns ok only with IExplorer, firefox doesn't.

here is my code...

Code:

#myul
{
	color: #000000;
	font-family: Calibri, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	list-style-position: outside;
	margin-left: 15%;
	margin-right: 15%
}

#myul li
{
	color: #0076a3;
	font-family: Calibri, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	background-image: url(images/check.gif);
}

Code:

<ul id="myul" class="listObj">
<li class="style16">Test item 1</li>
<li>Checks all devices</li>
<li>Verifies ....quality, ....resolution, precision/accuracy</li>
<li>Compares current imagesbla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla some more below.........................ok thanks</li>
</ul>

PLEASE NOTE that I want the check align on top, sometimes the text lenght makes it move, I don't want that to happen.

Can you help
Thanks, my first post here

I would like the align text next to the image and have it flow from the top down. Not adjacent then underneath it.

Once you view the html file, I think you get a better picture of what I'm talking about.

How can i use text-align with inline? So it doesn't line break after, but when you use display:inline with it, it takes away the text-ailgn.

Style:
Code:

.results{text-align: right; display:inline;}
h3{text-align: left; display:inline;}

html
Code:

	<H3>Audio</H3><p class="results">Displaying Results</p>

Thanks for taking the time to read my question.

I have a tree menu on my page www.pierced.ca/pierced-events.htm that has long text in it. I have wrapped the text so that the page does not stretch and look bad.

I am wondering how to move the wrapped text to the right so that it does not write over the dotted line. I would also like to extend the dotted line downward (I guess that would be another image)

Thanks for your help.

CSS file:

.dtree {
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #CCCCCC;
white-space: normal;
}
.dtree img {
border: 0px;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.dtree a {
color: #999999;
text-decoration: none;
}
.dtree a.node, .dtree a.nodeSel {
white-space: normal;
padding: 1px 2px 1px 2px;
}
.dtree a.node:hover, .dtree a.nodeSel:hover {

text-decoration: underline;
}
.dtree a.nodeSel {
background-color: #c0d2ec;
}
.dtree .clip {
overflow: hidden;
}

I was having some trouble centering my layout in Firefox. It looked fine in IE6 (yes... it's a pain to work in, but it's the nature of the beast when doing internal intranet stuff) when I simply used "text-align: center;" but the layout wouldn't center until I added "text-align: -moz-center;" under that (in the body style).

Is this an acceptable way of doing things? Is this a flaw in Firefox or is it more likely that I'm not doing things right? (yes I know I haven't posted code, this was more a high level question of when/if "text-align: -moz-center;" should be used).

I saw the layout of the table that have 2 columns where everything is aligned to the left in both columns. Since I have to do the CSS without a table where the 1st column is questionings and the 2nd column is form's textboxes & drop-down selection.

So, how do I get them lined up for the make-believe columns??

Hi all if you look here -> http://www.prxa.info/gol2/community.php to the right where it has status updates i wish the update itself to align to the top of the avatar images to the left of it?

Hi,

The text in my navigation bar is slightly off-centre, even though I have applied the text-align:centre property in my style sheet. Is there anything obvious that would be throwing it off?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jimmy

How do I align the text in my navbar vertically?

I'm trying to do this.
