Is there a special way to vertically center text in an element using flexboxes (or other pure CSS)?
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/WK_of_Angmar/JZZWg/
<body>
<div id="main">
<section id="a">Test1</section>
<section id="b">Test2</section>
</div>
#a {
flex: 1 0 auto;
}
#b {
flex: 0 0 auto;
min-height: 3em;
background-color: yellow;
}
#a {
background-color: blue;
}
#main {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: inherit;
}
body {height: inherit;}
html {height: 100%;}
Using
line-height
is one solution, here's the link to Fiddle.Update: I took a little more interest in the flex model and found the centering properties, so I guess this makes a better solution for you (although not that neat and elegant because of all the prfixes). Here is the link to Fiddle using flex properties for alignment.
And here is a link that explains the usage of the properties.
