π·How to vertically align an image inside a div?π
Are you tired of struggling to vertically align an image inside a div? π€ Don't worry, I've got you covered! In this blog post, I'll show you a simple solution to this common problem. π‘
Let's consider the example given:
<div class="frame" style="height: 25px;">
<img src="http://jsfiddle.net/img/logo.png" />
</div>
The goal is to vertically center the image within this div. However, the height of the div is fixed, and the image's height is unknown. π
Here's the solution:
Set the
line-height
property of the div to be equal to theheight
property. This will create a vertical alignment reference within the div.Use the
text-align: center;
property on the div to horizontally center the image.Add
vertical-align: middle;
to the image CSS to achieve the vertical alignment within the div.Set the
max-height
property on the image to ensure it doesn't exceed the div's height.Optionally, you can set a
max-width
property on the image if needed.
Here's the updated CSS for the div and image:
.frame {
height: 25px;
line-height: 25px;
width: 160px;
border: 1px solid red;
text-align: center;
margin: 1em 0;
}
img {
background: #3A6F9A;
vertical-align: middle;
max-height: 25px;
max-width: 160px;
}
Now, let's see the HTML code with multiple divs and images for demonstration purposes:
<div class="frame">
<img src="http://jsfiddle.net/img/logo.png" height=250 />
</div>
<!-- Place more divs with different image heights here -->
That's it! By following these steps, you'll be able to vertically align an image inside a div effortlessly. π
