Frustration
I am frustrated of having to search the internet time and again to find a way to get a simple webpage to fill the whole screen on any device. I don't care about resolution, text size, whether the text comes inside the screen or not or anything else. I don't care about anything. I have one word to display and it should come in the middle of the screen, vertically and horizontally.
CSS is driving me nuts. And I don't get why this ain't simpler. And bootstrap. Well, thanks a lot guys you helped me a lot! But why the hell don't you have a class that would simply take up all the visible space on the screen?
I have tried a lot of variations and none of them work. I just can't get that word to the freaking center of the screen.
Some variation
The simplest one: http://jsfiddle.net/IcyFlame/ngVSd/
<div style="height: 100%; width: 100%; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;">Word</div>
I don't know why this does not work. And I want an answer as to why this does not work. And more importantly, I would really love it if you would just tell me how to make it work. All the time, everywhere.
This is a really useful question: Setting height: 100% on my label element doesn't work
The person who gave the answer says that it is 100% of what. Really cool. And how do I solve the overall problem? Oh no, I just answered the question.
All the questions after that have been marked as duplicates. One of which is:
Height: 100% doesn't work! Why?
Although the question is totally different, well, the moderators simply believed that this was a duplicate and it was marked as one.
Note: I am catering to a lot of screen sizes. I don't want to write any kind of absolute pixel heights and widths anywhere in my final code.
Please help me with this issue
Reference: I want the word to come in the middle as it does on this gorgeours website:
Note that this just a reference. I don't want to have the background image. The whole header part of the webpage takes up the whole screen, that is what I want to achieve.
Everything is centered and beautiful. That is where I wanna go.
