I'm working on a site that is going to look like this:

Site

I'm struggling to align this text within the center of the box like this:

Box

This is what I have so far:

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Trend Sans 004'; /*a name to be used later*/
    src: url('fonts/Trend Sans W00 Four.ttf'); /*URL to font*/
}


@font-face {
    font-family: 'Utopia Regular'; /*a name to be used later*/
    src: url('fonts/utopia-regular.ttf'); /*URL to font*/
}

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Trend Sans 001'; /*a name to be used later*/
    src: url('fonts/Trend Sans W00 One.ttf'); /*URL to font*/
}

Basically, I just want to make the text sit within the middle of the box. Also, the spacing between the header, paragraph, and hr changes when i resize the window, which I don't want.

  • Visit http://www.w3schools.com/, its useful as a reference tool, you want to use "vertical-align". – SPlatten Mar 24 '16 at 12:58

What I would do:

1) Wrap your aa between two containers :

<div id="aa-outer-container">
  <div id="aa-inner-container">
    <div id="aa">
      <h5>The Bakery</h5></br>
      <p>Like a home away from home, our secluded cafe is the perfect place to relax, work, or settle in with a good book. Make sure to try one of our delicious lunch options or expertly brewed hot drinks. </p>
      <hr align="left" >
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

2) Add the following CSS :

#boxRowTxt {
    position : relative;
}

#aa-outer-container {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    position : absolute;
    display: table;
}

#aa-inner-container {
    display: table-cell;
    vertical-align: middle;
    text-align: center;
}

#aa {
    text-align: left;
    display: inline-block;
}

#aa h5 {
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
}

#aa p {
    margin-bottom: 1.5rem;
}

That should fix your problem!

  • It seems to be working at first but then when i'm resizing the windo, the text falls under/out of the box completely – E.B. Mar 24 '16 at 13:41
  • @E.B. : Could you prepare a Fiddle that demonstrates the problem you're having? It works as expected in my Fiddle (https://jsfiddle.net/r92f7hv7/). – John Slegers Mar 24 '16 at 13:43

You can just add text-align:center; to the #aa div. If you only want to do this for the one box, rather than both #aa boxes, wrap another div around the box that you want to do it to and apply the style to that instead.

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Trend Sans 004'; /*a name to be used later*/

You could consider using padding-top and padding-bottom in your #boxRowTxt. I have commented out a couple lines and added those, if you need more space just be sure to change them both to the same number to keep the content centred.

#boxRowTxt {
font-family:'Utopia Regular';
box-shadow:0px 0px 0px 3px #806239 inset;
width: 48%;
color:#163764;
position:static;
/*height: 0;*/
/*padding-bottom: 48%;*/
    /*Keep the padding on top and bottom the same*/
    padding-bottom: 4%;
    padding-top: 4%;

font-size:1.7vw;   
}

Depending on the browsers you must support, flexbox is a great tool for this!

Add the following to the #aa rule (which you could consider changing to a class)

#aa {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items: flex-start;
  justify-content: center;
}
