the vertical-align attribute? Why cant i get it to function.

vertical-align?

[Matthew1980]

Hi there Webmaster world!

When i nest a div within a div within a div (one inside the other), why will the vertical-align attribute not function. Im fed up of using <br> tags to get the text centered. Or is it something reserved for img or p tags?

Thanks for the help.

There is very limited support in browsers for vertical alignment so you will either need to use JS or some nasty hackery to pull it off.

Here is a simple little trick I do. I just use even top and bottom padding to vertically align content in a div.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the tips; looked over a few hack pages on google search, but i thought there would be something like you would have in tables, but obviously not.

Top and bottom padding it is then!

Cheers,
