How to vertically align both image and text in a DIV using CSS?

Question

I have an image and some text inside a div and I\'d like to put the image and the text in the vertical center of the div using CSS. The problem is that I don\'t know how man

Answer 1

Give both the image and the text a vertical-align: middle - the text needs to be contained in an element that is also display: inline. So markup like this:

<div>
  <span><img src="blah.jpg" /></span>
  <span>text text text</span>
</div>

div {
  display: table;
}

img {
  vertical-align: middle;
  display: table-cell;
}
span {
  vertical-align: middle;
  display: table-cell;
}

should work. Here's a jsfiddle to demonstrate (edited fiddle to show everything is vertically aligned within a container as well.)

EDIT: to get the behavior you want, I recommend using additional display properties - table for the container and table-cell for the contained elements. Fiddle link has been updated with the changes.

EDIT: the only way I could think of to get it to work was to wrap the image in another inline container, in this case a span. I've updated the fiddle to demonstrate.

You may try this, example here.

CSS:

div.parent{ 
    border:solid black 1px;
    display:table;
    padding:5px; 
    width:100%;
    margin:5px 0; /* you can change/remove margin */
}
div.text{ 
    vertical-align:middle;
    display:table-cell;
    text-align:justify;
}
div.parent .img{
    vertical-align:middle;
    display:table-cell;
    padding-right:5px;
    width:50px; /* you can change width */
}
div.img img{ 
    width:100%;
    height:50px; /* you can change height */
    vertical-align:middle;
}

​HTML:

<div class="parent">
    <div class="img"><img src="http://example.com.img1.png" /></div>
    <div class="text">Some Text Some.</div>
</div>
