I have an h2 element that, ideally, should be aligned with it's left and right borders through it's vertical midpoint. I've tried padding, and vertical-align:middle but nothing seems to work. Ideas?
Thank you.
jsfiddle
I've moved the font-size and added a line-height declaration to the #title element, as the vertical-align property is affected by these properties:
#save-the-date #title {
padding-left: 80px;
text-align: center;
width: 800px;
font-size: 180%;
line-height: 150%;
}
You only need to declare the h2 as an inline display style, unless you want the width fixed, in which case use inline-block and a width:
#save-the-date #title h2 {
display: inline;
}
You can then have a single rule for both the spans, I removed the extra declarations for the background that weren't necessary:
#save-the-date #title span {
display: inline-block;
background: #333333;
width: 300px;
height: 3px;
vertical-align: middle;
}

Try Using Line Height Property
h2 { line-height: *font-size* }
Check CSS line-height..

I've tried to align last div element / elements using text-align-last property but it didn't work. I have much divs in the center, but my page is different on each resolution so I can't control if elements will be perfectly and none of them will be in last line alone or so, that's why I want to align them to left.

Picture of my site:
Adding the following CSS will work.
http://jsfiddle.net/ecn8c0pt/1/
#gallery h2{
margin: 0;
height: 80px; /*Added height for the Heading */
font-size: 1.1em;
font-weight: 300;
color: #33CCFF;
}
.project{
display: inline-block;
margin: 0 15px 40px;
width: 156px; //To show in jsfiddle i reduced the width.
text-align: left;
float: left; //MUST CHANGE: Once you align left it will automatically float to left. Also the number of count per row will depends on the window width and div width.
}
.project .thumbnail{
width: 156px;//To show in jsfiddle i reduced the width.
height: 144px;
border-radius: 3px;
}
try adding styles to your CSS like these:
float:left;
min-width: 200px;
max-width: 200px;
and try to fix the width for the wrapping div tag
for example:
.wrapper {
width:1000px;
}
see in example DEMO and try to predict the width now when you control it good luck!

I've been trying to align the green circle vertically within the white box, but I'm struggling on how it should be approached.
Using vertical-align: center; does nothing if applied to the circle.
Can anyone explain how it should be done please, in the most semantically correct way.
Remove the display:block attribute from the title class and that should do the trick.
vertical-align will not work with floated elements as floats are not within the normal 'flow' of the document. You can use vertical align with inline or inline-block elements.
.title{
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
Remove float: right; from .number.
As said by Dave Mroz, removing the display:block from .title should do the trick for you.
But in order to keep the .box element's original dimensions from you fiddle, you should also clear the floats after .title and .number.
Like this.
You need to change your CSS like this way
.box {
background-color: white;
padding: 30px;
margin-bottom: 30px;
border-radius:4px;
height:30px;
}
.title {color: rgb(15, 15, 15);
font-family: myriad-pro, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 24px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
display:block;
float:left;
}
Working Fiddle
I came across this behavior recently when a client reported that some of the buttons on a page had vertically centered text while others did not.
As it turns out, buttons will vertically center text inside them but links won't. Example here: http://jsfiddle.net/valentin/7EjtD/
a, button{
height: 200px;
background-color: #ff6400;
color: #fff;
font-weight: bold;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
border: 0;
padding: 20px;
font-family: sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
}
Is there any way to add this behavior to links as well outside of using line-height?
Button aligns to the middle because is its default behavior. Your fiddle is aligning top actually. To make it work you can wrap your elements on an display:table element, like a div. Then set the button and the link to be display:table-cell. Then your vertical-align will work. Like this:
<div class="wrapper">
LINK
<button>BUTTON</button>
</div>
And the css:
*{
box-sizing: border-box;
}
div.wrapper {
display:table;
}
a, button{
height: 200px;
background-color: #ff6400;
color: #fff;
font-weight: bold;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
border: 0;
padding: 20px;
font-family: sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
}
Buttons are inline-block elements, while anchors are just inline. You can use padding to achieve the same effect:
a
{
padding: 91px 20px; /* <---(height-fontSize)/2 */
height: auto;
}
JSFiddle
TableData (TD AKA cell) are pretty damn good at default text centering ;)
live demo
a{
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
for clean-code-sake i'd use a special class like:
a.buttonAlike{
Sorry folks! Didn't see he wanted to avoid line-height. Original post:
Add line-height equal to the height of your element. In this case:
line-height: 200px;

I have 4 Images, and for some reasons my brain stopped working and i cant figure out why i cant center those.
That's the Fiddle -> http://jsfiddle.net/theminijohn/bcMX5/
If i try to just <center> them i'm getting a Deprecated Html Tag Error in my Editor.
I tried a lot of things, till rewriting the Css and Html Code, but i'm brain stuck here.
Could some Gentleman help brake my blockade ? :)
Here is one way of doing it.
Add a wrapper block element around your div's and then apply the following CSS:
.wrap {
border: 1px solid blue;
overflow: auto;
text-align: center;
}
/* Center 4 Blocks */
.hd_b {
font-size: 13px;
font-weight: normal;
margin-top: 10px;
display: block;
text-decoration: none;
}
._hd {
margin-right: 20px;
display: inline-block;
text-align: center;
}
._hd:last-child {
margin-right: 0;
}
._hd img {
opacity: .85;
}
._hd a:hover img {
opacity: 1;
}
See demo at http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/QTxy9/
The parent .wrap block has text-align: center, and this will center the child ._hd div's that have display: inline-block.
You need to reset the right margin on the last child div using ._hd:last-child.
This works pretty well if you are willing to use the inline-block display type.
Note that any white space between inline-block elements translate into a 1ex wide space, which may not be obvious when you set the margin between blocks.
All of those divs need to be in one container div that has a fixed width. Then you can apply margin: 0 auto to the container.
http://jsfiddle.net/bcMX5/9/
Try doing this:-
Give a "main" DIV outside all img DIV "<div id="main">"
and give "margin: 0 auto;" along with some width to it.
Please refer the Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/aasthatuteja/6U2YJ/
Hope this should solve your issue!
would this be, want you want?
._hd {
margin-right: 20px;
display: block;
width:100%;
text-align: center;
}
Forget about margin and float ;) http://jsfiddle.net/bcMX5/8/
._hd {
//margin-right: 20px;
display: block;
//float: left;
text-align: center;
}
Depends on how you want to center the elements? If it's in a column the above answer would work. Its in a grid then wrap them in a fixed width container.
._hd_container{
width:440px;
margin:0 auto;
}

I have this code: http://jsfiddle.net/5qLDz/ inside which I want to have images vertically aligned to bottom of the container (with some padding from container itself). It doesn't work even with li having display: table-cell and both li and img having vertical-align:bottom set. What can it be?
Please stop posting solutions using position: absolute. As you can see in my code, I used text-align: center which is important there.
One simple fix is to set the line-height to be the same as the container height:
ul.thumbnails li {
box-sizing: border-box;
text-align: center;
background: grey;
padding-bottom: 22px;
height: 222px;
line-height: 222px;
display: table-cell;
}
ul.thumbnails li img {
border-radius: 5px;
bottom: 22px;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
That seems to work, http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/5qLDz/20/
You only need to declare vertical-align: bottom on the img rule.
However, if you add other elements like captions or social media links this could affect how you implement the solution.
For the love of god don't use display:table-cell just to vertically align something. Just using relative positioning will also do this far more easily: forked Fiddle.
Only changed the parent to position:relative and the child to position:absolute.
Update your CSS:
div.left section.box ul.thumbnails {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
ul.thumbnails li {
text-align: center;
background: grey;
height: 222px;
position:relative;
}
ul.thumbnails li img {
border-radius: 5px;
bottom: 22px;
position:absolute;
}
