How to center-justify the last line of text in CSS?

Question

How can I center-justify text?

Currently, justify does not center the last line.

Answer 1

Solution (not the best, but still working for some cases) for non-dinamic text with fixed width.Usefull for situations when there are a little space to "stretch" text to the end of the penultimate line. Make some symbols in the end of the paragraph (experiment with their length) and hide it; apply to the paragraph absolute position or just correct free space with padding/marging.

Good compabitity/crossbrowser way for center-justifying text.

Example (paragraph before):

.paragraph {
    width:455px;
    text-align:justify;
}

.center{
  display:block;
  text-align:center;
  margin-top:-17px;
}

Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue. Praesent commodo cursus magna,
vel scelerisque nisl consectetur et.

And after the fix:

.paragraph {
    width:455px;
    text-align:justify;
    position:relative;
}
.center{
  display:block;
  text-align:center;
  margin-top:-17px;
}
.paragraph b{
  opacity:0;

-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=0)";
filter: alpha(opacity=0);
-moz-opacity: 0;
-khtml-opacity: 0;
}
