how to center vertically and left justify text in html

The html I posted in post #7 with a single span is what I envisioned all along, as it is all that is necessary.

(But it is possible that there could be some crazy situation where it could happen.) In post #3 when Chrisj stated that it didn’t work I knew it was being nested in another span which is unnecessary.

A single span around the colon only was my intention all along, as shown in my first reply in post #2. (2) + with span around colon only as suggested by feel like I need to clarify something here. (1) + with span around text enclosing another span around the colon. * outline:1px dashed yellow /* TEST Outline */įont-size:3.4375em /* em instead of px */ * outline:1px dashed lime /* TEST Outline */ * line-height:normal /* TEST line-height normal is the default */ * line-height:1.1 /* TEST line-height */ * line-height:1 /* TEST line-height pick one and enable it. Both properties are inherited by the paragraphs and right aligned. It looks like 1.1 would be the minimum on text2 and 1.0 on text1&3 p.text-1, p.text-3 to the parent boxes, the upper example has the class in the outer box, the lower example has the class in the parent box. 8 with some extra text that I forced to wrap by reducing my browser window.Īs you can see the capital T has the potential of overlapping a lower j.Īctually it’s starting to overlap at line-height:1 on all p tags If you go too small you would see wrapping text layered on top each other. You can cheat it down but I wouldn’t go too small for the reasons I just mentioned along with text that might wrap to a new line. When stacked between two strings of text at 19px font-size it appears as margin, but it’s not.ĭefault line-height is 1.2 or 1.3 if I remember correctly, That is so it allows space for text ascenders and descenders. You do have a default line-height on that 55px font-size that plays a role in the spacing. Īs instructed, but it only reduced the lower gap. So, my question is how do I keep this line from stacking like this:Īny additional help with this is appreciated. (also, I don’t know if this should be a whole new posting, for this help request). The code below might help with my explanation. So, when I add your code into that container the “text” and “:” and “text1” all stack on top of each other, but I’d like that line to not stack, and instead display in one single line. However, I need the provided code to be within the container named box99, which is using display block for the text there, so it all stacks on top of each other on the page. What you provided worked successfully.Thank you again - much appreciated.
