In this tutorial I will show you how you can center a HTML element horizontally and vertically using CSS.

Vertical Centering


For vertical centering an element the container of the element should be displayed as a table-cell. The container should also have a height so that the browser can calculate the center position. And also the vertical-align property should be set to middle.

Horizontal Centering
