CSS : How do I vertically-center align text in a div ? (or any other elements which is not a table)

Question

To vertically-center align text in a table-cell, I use vertical-align: middle in the td .

But the above doesn't work with divs, spans, header and other non-table elements. So how can I vertically-center align text in such elements ?

Answer 1

如果它是单行文本，则可以将行高设置为与元素相同的高度。

Answer 2

There are many possibilities, each with it's advantages and drawbacks.

Here's a good article by Douglas Heriot explaining 5 others methods, and comparing them.

Answer 3

Just use the following style :

<style type="text/css">
    div {
            vertical-align: middle;
            display: table-cell;
        }
</style>

That way, you are "displaying" the div as a table-cell and since vertical-align works with table-cells, you're text will be center-vertically aligned.
