HTML - How To Center Content Vertically?
Hi everyone, this is my first post. I am hoping to find someone who can help me.
I need to make it so a table on my page is centered veritcally (the same way the center tag centers it horizontally) so that it will always be in the center of the page regardless of screen resolution or if the person resizes their browser window - is such a thing possible? If javascript is needed that is fine. Thanks Similar TutorialsHi, I'm absolute noob when it comes to building websites, so please be gentle. See, for example, this page of my website: http://home.planet.nl/~lever170/hk/hk.html The page is a frame with the photo's on the right and the BACK link on the left. I would like to vertically center the page with BACK so that the vertical line lines up with the thumbnails regardless of screen size. The code for the BACK page is as follows: Code: <html> <body style="background-color:#333333" link="white" alink="white" vlink="white"> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <center> <table cellspacing="5" border="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td> <br><br><br><br> <a style="text-decoration:none" href="javascript: history.go(-1)">BACK</a><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> </p> </td> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><img src="http://home.planet.nl/~lever170/1pix.gif"><BR></td> </tr> </table> </center> </body> </html> How do I vertically center this? Hai there, just a quick question - How do I center an image vertically (as in right in the middle, I don't want to have to mess around with each image to the exact pixel spacings) All I want to know is the code to put this: </A> <A HREF="http://rh.pretsell.co.uk/xlrstats/"> <IMG SRC="http://i28.servimg.com/u/f28/15/38/25/28/xlrsta16.png"> In the middle so it makes the forum look better Thank you! At the bottom of each of my many pages I like to put a set of various buttons/links and I like to center them all, beginning with my email addy. I'm using the identical html on every page and so far, on every page it all has centered correctly. On the one I'm working on now, though, they are "left-justified." You can see it at http://www.sticksite.com/fishing/indexNEW.html at the bottom, directly below the horizontal line, and starting with my email addy. Can anyone please tell me why, on THIS page, that stuff will not center, when I did use the tag: <div style="text-align: center> which has worked on every other page so far? THANKS! (maybe fishing is not compatible with centering?) Hi! I have a problem here which really really annoys me. http://members.dodo.com.au/~rouslan/...ite/index.html when you look at the page it looks great with Firefox and when you look at it with Internet Explore 7 it also looks fine except the main content is not absolutely centered. In Internet Explore 7 you can see that by comparing margins, the left one is shorter than the right one. How can I fix that? p.s. I am a lot out-of-dated with HTML, because the last time I was constructing web pages 8 years ago, so you might notice in source I use a lot of tables, etc. If you can suggest I should change all the code, please do or simply paste it here as solution. Thank you! Hi, Im trying to make my footer content align correctly to the main content when a window resizes. The apdivs don't seem to want to move at all even with a relative position etc. I have tried everything but just cant get it to work can someone help please? http://pjm.co.uk.uksite4.yourwebserv...splay&PageID=5 Also some one commented before on the amount of css and JS pages. These will al be stripped out as its an Open sources system im using! Thansk alot Joe Hi, I've got an image 25x25px which i'm trying to vertically align in a 35px high list element. The css attached to the image is: width: 25px; height: 25px; border: 0px; vertical-align:middle; and the css attached to the list element is: font-size: small; height: 35px; border-style: ridge; border-width: 0px 0px 2px 0px; I'm trying to find a way of getting the browser to vertically align through css. I'm not trying to use padding, etc on the image, because i'm worried that when a user enlarges the text, or its rendered by different brwosers, etc, the image will mis-align itself. I thought vertical align was the right attribute, because i thought it vertically aligned all inline elements. but when i've attached it to the image, nothing has happened. http://www.tendervendors.com/contact.php I'm trying to vertically align the little picture of a house, in the navigation bar. I'm greatful for any help you can give, Matthew Millar Good afternoon! Where has the sun gone I'm freezing! Is it possible to have a table with rowspan with the text in the rowspan to read vertically (like taking an entire sentence after its been typed and rotating it 90ccw)? I have a table that is saved from Photoshop. It's a table with a load of cells inside. How can I vertically center the table? Not its content, I mean the actual table itself so it centers itself no matter the resolution of the screen it's being displayed on. Thanks, Simon how do i center the body of this page: www.discoveryfilmsuk.com/ i want to align to the middle of the page, vertically and horizontally I've been trying for 2 days to get my text to vertically-align middle in IE, but it just won't listen. I'm building the site www.acadianacomputerrepair.info; the title and menu items need to be aligned to the middle of their div containers, but they want to clip to the top. I'm setting the parent div's to display as tables and the child as a table-cell. It works great in firefox and perfect, even in IE, on a simple html test page, but I can't get it to work for the site, in IE. I don't know what else to try. Can someone help? An old chestnut this one, but I can't find reference to this particular technique when searching the forums. http://www.freemanpeer.com is the address and I'm using the technique found here (http://exanimo.com/examples/css/vert...ated-shim.html) to vertically center, however it's sticking fairly rigidly to the top of the browser. Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance, Jez. Hello I have two tables in my JSP ; the first table has 3 columns, and should be displayed on top of the page and is used to display elements of a form. Another table should be displayed below that table, has dynamic number of columns. This page opens as a child window from main window The problem is that the tables are displayed beside each other if I have not specified width of table. If I do specify it (like I set it to 100%) the second table is not shown . Could you please help me and tell me how to have two tables displayed vertically inside my page ? Thank you so much Evrim Hey, I want an image in the dead center of a frame. All I have so far is: <center><img src="images/banner_ani.gif"></center> I don't know how to vertically align the image.

Any ideas? div{vertical-align: -50%} thats what i came up with but still no joy... Hello all, I need some help, and I'm hoping someone can assist me . I'm trying to create a html document - an offline webpage. Basically, I want parts of the page to remain static, which contain a logo and some navigation links, and the one part of the table to be a scrolling box. The reason is this: That one cell is going to contain some very large images - 1000 pixels wide by maybe 2000, 3000 high. So while the width can obviously fit on a standard monitor, the height will not. Now, the images themselves are pictures of long flowcharts. Therefore, it's fine for the user to scroll down to navigate the flowchart. But the static navigation links and the title should remain - well, static - while the user is able to scroll up and down that ONE cell containing the flowcharts. Here's a picture to clarify things. As you can see, the bolded cell is the one in question. (apologies for the shoddy drawing) If anyone solves that problem, I have one slightly tougher one for you to solve, but more on that later. Can anyone help me? :sad: How do I vertically move all of the text (ie Days:Hour:Min:Sec) in the 2nd row of the column that says "Test" to the top of the box? How do I vertically move all of the text (ie Days:Hour:Min:Sec) in the 2nd row of the column that says "Best Time since 2005" to the middle of the box? Thank you. <table border="1"> <tr> <th> </th> <th>Test</th> <th style="color:green">Best Time Since 2005</th> </tr> <tr> <th>Comp X</th> <th> <div id="cpcontainer"> <table><tr class='text' align='center'><td>Days :</td><td> Hour :</td><td>Min :</td><td>Sec</td> </tr><tr class=''text'' align=''center'' style='color:green'> <td>11 :</td><td> 5 :</td><td>0 :</td><td>0</td> </tr></table> </div> </th> <th> <div id="cpcontainer1"> <table><tr class='text' align='center'><td>Days :</td><td> Hour :</td><td>Min :</td><td>Sec</td> </tr><tr class=''text'' align=''center'' style='color:green'> <td>11 :</td><td> 5 :</td><td>0 :</td><td>0</td> </tr></table> </div> </th> </tr> </table> Hello Everyone! About 4-5 days ago I made my attempt to build my first webpage, I am using Dreamweaver cs4 my goal right now is to split my index page in half so I can have two columns, one side for a current video and the other for upcoming news. my site is www.canapictures.com and I will include a picture of what I am trying to achieve, thank you. The gray line in the middle is where I want it to split, and the box is where text would go, I want to line to be invisible if possible. Hello all, I am having a problem vertically aligning something inside a <li> element. This is the code I'm talking about: Code: <ul class="small_nav2"> <li class="small_nav_back"><a href="javascript: ;" onclick="hide_more_nav();" id="scroll_nb"></li> <li class="small_nav_next"><a href="javascript: ;" onclick="hide_more_nav();" id="scroll_nn"></li> </ul> It has the following CSS attached: Code: .small_nav2 { margin: 0 0 40px 0; } .small_nav_back { background:url("images/shadow_left.png") no-repeat scroll right top transparent; height:90px; left:0; position:absolute; top:5px; width:20px; } .small_nav_back a { background:url("images/btn_arrow_left.gif") no-repeat scroll left top transparent; display:block; height:19px; width:14px; top:5px; } As you can see, there is a <li> item, that has a background-image, and a hyperlink within that <li> item, that also has a background-image. Now I want that hyperlink (the block of 19x14) to align vertically within the <li> element. But how can I do that? I've tried (I hope in the right manner) to use vertical-align: middle, and adjusted the line-heigt as well. To no succes. You can see it all in action HERE When I place links on my bands myspace page the link text displays on the page vertically instead of horizontally on some computers. It displayed correctly (Horizontally) on the PC I created it on, but when i view it on other PCs the text was vertical. Here is the page. It's the white text near the top.
