Bootstrap 3 modal vertical position center

CssTwitter BootstrapModal DialogCenter

Css Problem Overview


This is a two part question:

  1. How can you position the modal vertically in the center when you don't know the exact height of the modal?

  2. Is it possible to have the modal centered and have overflow:auto in the modal-body, but only if the modal exceeds the screen height?

I have tried using this:

.modal-dialog {
  height: 80% !important;
  padding-top:10%;
}

.modal-content {
  height: 100% !important;
  overflow:visible;
}

.modal-body {
  height: 80%;
  overflow: auto;
}

This gives me the result I need when the content is much larger than vertical screen size, but for small modal contents it's pretty much unusable.

Solution 1 - Css

.modal {
  text-align: center;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 768px) { 
  .modal:before {
    display: inline-block;
    vertical-align: middle;
    content: " ";
    height: 100%;
  }
}

.modal-dialog {
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: left;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

And adjust a little bit .fade class to make sure it appears out of the top border of window, instead of center

Solution 2 - Css

1. How can you position the modal vertically in the center when you don't know the exact height of the modal?

To absolute center the Bootstrap 3 Modal without declaring a height, you will first need to overwrite the Bootstrap CSS by adding this to your style sheet:

.modal-dialog-center { /* Edited classname 10/03/2014 */
    margin: 0;
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
}

This will position the modal-dialogs top-left corner in the center of the window.

We have to add this media query or else the modal margin-left is wrong on small devices:

@media (max-width: 767px) {
  .modal-dialog-center { /* Edited classname 10/03/2014 */
    width: 100%;
  }
} 

Now we will need to adjust its position with JavaScript. To do that we give the element a negative top and left margin equal to half of its height and width. In this example we will be using jQuery since it is available with Bootstrap.

$('.modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
    $(this).find('.modal-dialog').css({
        'margin-top': function () {
            return -($(this).outerHeight() / 2);
        },
        'margin-left': function () {
            return -($(this).outerWidth() / 2);
        }
    });
});

Update (01/10/2015):

Adding on Finik's answer. Credits to Centering in the Unknown.

.modal {
  text-align: center;
  padding: 0!important;
}

.modal:before {
  content: '';
  display: inline-block;
  height: 100%;
  vertical-align: middle;
  margin-right: -4px; /* Adjusts for spacing */
}

.modal-dialog {
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: left;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

Notice the negative margin-right? This removes the space added by inline-block. That space causes the modal to jump to the bottom of the page @media width < 768px.

2. Is it possible to have the modal centered and have overflow:auto in the modal-body, but only if the modal exceeds the screen height?

This is possible by giving the modal-body an overflow-y:auto and a max-height. This takes a bit more work to get it working properly. Start with adding this to your style sheet:

.modal-body {
    overflow-y: auto;
}
.modal-footer {
    margin-top: 0;
}

We will use jQuery again to get the window height and set the max-height of the modal-content first. Then we have to set the max-height of the modal-body, by subtracting the modal-content with the modal-header and modal-footer:

$('.modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
    var contentHeight = $(window).height() - 60;
    var headerHeight = $(this).find('.modal-header').outerHeight() || 2;
    var footerHeight = $(this).find('.modal-footer').outerHeight() || 2;

    $(this).find('.modal-content').css({
        'max-height': function () {
            return contentHeight;
        }
    });

    $(this).find('.modal-body').css({
        'max-height': function () {
            return (contentHeight - (headerHeight + footerHeight));
        }
    });

    $(this).find('.modal-dialog').css({
        'margin-top': function () {
            return -($(this).outerHeight() / 2);
        },
        'margin-left': function () {
            return -($(this).outerWidth() / 2);
        }
    });
});

You can find a working demo here with Bootstrap 3.0.3: http://cdpn.io/GwvrJ</strike> EDIT: I recommend using the updated version instead for a more responsive solution: http://cdpn.io/mKfCc

Update (30/11/2015):

function setModalMaxHeight(element) {
  this.$element     = $(element);  
  this.$content     = this.$element.find('.modal-content');
  var borderWidth   = this.$content.outerHeight() - this.$content.innerHeight();
  var dialogMargin  = $(window).width() < 768 ? 20 : 60;
  var contentHeight = $(window).height() - (dialogMargin + borderWidth);
  var headerHeight  = this.$element.find('.modal-header').outerHeight() || 0;
  var footerHeight  = this.$element.find('.modal-footer').outerHeight() || 0;
  var maxHeight     = contentHeight - (headerHeight + footerHeight);

  this.$content.css({
      'overflow': 'hidden'
  });
  
  this.$element
    .find('.modal-body').css({
      'max-height': maxHeight,
      'overflow-y': 'auto'
  });
}

$('.modal').on('show.bs.modal', function() {
  $(this).show();
  setModalMaxHeight(this);
});

$(window).resize(function() {
  if ($('.modal.in').length != 0) {
    setModalMaxHeight($('.modal.in'));
  }
});

    </div>

Solution 4 - Css

It can simply can be fixed with display: flex

.modal-dialog {
  margin-top: 0;
  margin-bottom: 0;
  height: 100vh;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: center;
}

.modal.fade .modal-dialog {
  transform: translate(0, -100%);
}

.modal.in .modal-dialog {
  transform: translate(0, 0);
}

With prefix

.modal-dialog {
  margin-top: 0;
  margin-bottom: 0;
  height: 100vh;
  display: -webkit-box;
  display: -webkit-flex;
  display: -ms-flexbox;
  display: flex;
  -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
  -webkit-box-direction: normal;
  -webkit-flex-direction: column;
      -ms-flex-direction: column;
          flex-direction: column;
  -webkit-box-pack: center;
  -webkit-justify-content: center;
      -ms-flex-pack: center;
          justify-content: center;
}

.modal.fade .modal-dialog {
  -webkit-transform: translate(0, -100%);
          transform: translate(0, -100%);
}
.modal.in .modal-dialog {
  -webkit-transform: translate(0, 0);
          transform: translate(0, 0);
}

Solution 5 - Css

I came up with a pure css solution! It's css3 though, which means ie8 or lower is not supported, but other than this it's tested and working on ios, android, ie9+, chrome, firefox, desktop safari..

I am using the following css:

.modal-dialog {
  position:absolute;
  top:50% !important;
  transform: translate(0, -50%) !important;
  -ms-transform: translate(0, -50%) !important;
  -webkit-transform: translate(0, -50%) !important;
  margin:auto 5%;
  width:90%;
  height:80%;
}
.modal-content {
  min-height:100%;
  position:absolute;
  top:0;
  bottom:0;
  left:0;
  right:0; 
}
.modal-body {
  position:absolute;
  top:45px; /** height of header **/
  bottom:45px;  /** height of footer **/
  left:0;
  right:0;
  overflow-y:auto;
}
.modal-footer {
  position:absolute;
  bottom:0;
  left:0;
  right:0;
}

Here is a fiddle. http://codepen.io/anon/pen/Hiskj

..selecting this as the correct answer since there's no extra heavy javascript that brings the browser to its knees in case of more than one modals.

Solution 6 - Css

If you're okay with using flexbox then this should help solve it.

.modal-dialog {
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
}

.modal-content {
  margin: 0 auto;
}

Solution 7 - Css

My solution:

.modal.in .modal-dialog 
{
    -webkit-transform: translate(0, calc(50vh - 50%));
    -ms-transform: translate(0, 50vh) translate(0, -50%);
    -o-transform: translate(0, calc(50vh - 50%));
    transform: translate(0, 50vh) translate(0, -50%);
}

Solution 8 - Css

All what I did in my case is to set the Top in my css knowing the height of the modal

<div id="myModal" class="modal fade"> ... </div>

in my css i set

#myModal{
    height: 400px;
    top: calc(50% - 200px) !important;
}

Solution 9 - Css

Adding this simple css also works.

.modal-dialog {
  height: 100vh !important;
  display: flex;
}

.modal-content {
  margin: auto !important;
  height: fit-content !important;
}

Solution 10 - Css

There is an easiest way to do this using css:

.modal-dialog {
	position: absolute;
	left: 0;
	right: 0;
	top: 0;
	bottom: 0;
	margin: auto;
	width:500px;
	height:300px;
}

That's it. Notice that it is only needed to be applied to the .modal-dialog container div.

Solution 11 - Css

Expanding on @Finik's excellent answer, this fix is only applied to non-mobile devices. I tested in IE8, Chrome, and Firefox 22 - it works with very long or short content.

.modal {
  text-align: center;
}
@media screen and (min-device-width: 768px) {
  .modal:before {
    display: inline-block;
    vertical-align: middle;
    content: " ";
    height: 100%;
  }
}

.modal-dialog {
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: left;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

Solution 12 - Css

The most universal solution I wrote. Dynamicaly computes with dialog height. (Next step could be recalculating of dialogs' height on window resize.)

JSfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/8Fvg9/3/

// initialise on document ready
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
    'use strict';

    // CENTERED MODALS
    // phase one - store every dialog's height
    $('.modal').each(function () {
        var t = $(this),
            d = t.find('.modal-dialog'),
            fadeClass = (t.is('.fade') ? 'fade' : '');
        // render dialog
        t.removeClass('fade')
            .addClass('invisible')
            .css('display', 'block');
        // read and store dialog height
        d.data('height', d.height());
        // hide dialog again
        t.css('display', '')
            .removeClass('invisible')
            .addClass(fadeClass);
    });
    // phase two - set margin-top on every dialog show
    $('.modal').on('show.bs.modal', function () {
        var t = $(this),
            d = t.find('.modal-dialog'),
            dh = d.data('height'),
            w = $(window).width(),
            h = $(window).height();
        // if it is desktop & dialog is lower than viewport
        // (set your own values)
        if (w > 380 && (dh + 60) < h) {
            d.css('margin-top', Math.round(0.96 * (h - dh) / 2));
        } else {
            d.css('margin-top', '');
        }
    });

});

Solution 13 - Css

This is quite old and specifically asks for a solution using Bootstrap 3, but for anyone wondering: from Bootstrap 4 on there is a built-in solution called .modal-dialog-centered. Here's the issue: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/23638

So using v4 you just need to add .modal-dialog-centered to .modal-dialog to vertically center the modal:

<!-- Button trigger modal -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModalCenter">
  Launch demo modal
</button>

<!-- Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="exampleModalCenter" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalCenterTitle" aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered" role="document">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <h5 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalCenterTitle">Modal title</h5>
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
          <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
        </button>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        ...
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Found the perfect solution from here

            dialog = modal.find('.modal-dialog');
        modal.css('display', 'block');
        
        // Dividing by two centers the modal exactly, but dividing by three 
        // or four works better for larger screens.
        dialog.css("margin-top", Math.max(0, ($(window).height() - dialog.height()) / 2));
    }
    // Reposition when a modal is shown
    $('.modal').on('show.bs.modal', reposition);
    // Reposition when the window is resized
    $(window).on('resize', function() {
        $('.modal:visible').each(reposition);

Here's one other css only method that works pretty well and is based on this: http://zerosixthree.se/vertical-align-anything-with-just-3-lines-of-css/

sass:

.modal {
    height: 100%;

    .modal-dialog {
        top: 50% !important;
        margin-top:0;
        margin-bottom:0;
    }

    //keep proper transitions on fade in
    &.fade .modal-dialog {
        transform: translateY(-100%) !important;
    }
    &.in .modal-dialog {
        transform: translateY(-50%) !important;
    }
}

Solution 17 - Css

This works for me:

.modal {
  text-align: center;
  padding: 0!important;
}

.modal:before {
  content: '';
  display: inline-block;
  height: 100%;
  vertical-align: middle;
  margin-right: -4px;
}

.modal-dialog {
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: left;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

yet another solution which will set a valid position for each visible modal on window.resize event and on show.bs.modal:

(function ($) {
    "use strict";
    function centerModal() {
        $(this).css('display', 'block');
        var $dialog  = $(this).find(".modal-dialog"),
            offset       = ($(window).height() - $dialog.height()) / 2,
            bottomMargin = parseInt($dialog.css('marginBottom'), 10);

        // Make sure you don't hide the top part of the modal w/ a negative margin if it's longer than the screen height, and keep the margin equal to the bottom margin of the modal
        if(offset < bottomMargin) offset = bottomMargin;
        $dialog.css("margin-top", offset);
    }

    $(document).on('show.bs.modal', '.modal', centerModal);
    $(window).on("resize", function () {

Solution 24 - Css

I know it's a bit late, but I am adding a new answer so that it doesn't get lost in the crowd. It's a cross-desktop-mobile-browser solution that works everywhere properly as it should.

It just needs the modal-dialog to be wrapped inside a modal-dialog-wrap class and need to have the following code additions:

.modal-dialog-wrap {
  display: table;
  table-layout: fixed;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

.modal-dialog {
  display: table-cell;
  vertical-align: middle;
  text-align: center;
}

.modal-content {
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: left;
}

The dialog starts centered and in cases of large content it simply grows vertically until a scrollbar appears.

Here is a working fiddle for your pleasure!

Solution 26 - Css

Consider using the bootstrap-modal plugin found here - https://github.com/jschr/bootstrap-modal

The plugin will center all of your modals

Solution 27 - Css

For the centering, I don't get what's with the overly complicated solutions. bootstrap already centers it horizontally for you, so you don't need to mess with this. My solution is just set a top margin only using jQuery.

$('#myModal').on('loaded.bs.modal', function() {
	$(this).find('.modal-dialog').css({
		'margin-top': function () {
			return (($(window).outerHeight() / 2) - ($(this).outerHeight() / 2));
		}
	});
});

I've used the loaded.bs.modal event as I am remotely loading content, and using the shown.ba.modal event causes the height calculation to be incorrect. You can of course add in an event for the window being resized if you need it to be that responsive.

Solution 28 - Css

Very very easy way to achieve this concept and you will get modal always in the moddle of your screen by css as fllow : http://jsfiddle.net/jy0zc2jc/1/

you have to just modal class display as table by following css:

display:table

and modal-dialog as display:table-cell

see full working example in given fiddle

Solution 29 - Css

it's not that complicated.

please try this:

$(document).ready(function(){
    var modalId = "#myModal";
	resize: function(){
			var new_margin = Math.ceil(($(window).height() - $(modalId).find('.modal-dialog').height()) / 2);
			$(modalId).find('.modal-dialog').css('margin-top', new_margin + 'px');
	}
	$(window).resize(function(){
		resize();
	});
	$(modalId).on('shown.bs.modal', function(){
		resize();
	});
});

Solution 30 - Css

Use this simple script that centers the modals.

If you want you can set a custom class (ex: .modal.modal-vcenter instead of .modal) to limit the functionality only to some modals.

var modalVerticalCenterClass = ".modal";

function centerModals($element) {
    var $modals;
    if ($element.length) {
    $modals = $element;
    } else {
    $modals = $(modalVerticalCenterClass + ':visible');
}
$modals.each( function(i) {
    var $clone = $(this).clone().css('display', 'block').appendTo('body');
    var top = Math.round(($clone.height() - $clone.find('.modal-content').height()) / 2);
    top = top > 0 ? top : 0;
    $clone.remove();
    $(this).find('.modal-content').css("margin-top", top);
    });
}
$(modalVerticalCenterClass).on('show.bs.modal', function(e) {
    centerModals($(this));
});
$(window).on('resize', centerModals);

Also add this CSS fix for the modal's horizontal spacing; we show the scroll on the modals, the body scrolls is hidden automatically by Bootstrap:

/* scroll fixes */
.modal-open .modal {
    padding-left: 0px !important;
    padding-right: 0px !important;
    overflow-y: scroll;
}

Solution 31 - Css

In mobile plantform it might look a little different, here's my code.

<div class="modal-container">
  <style>
  .modal-dialog{
    margin-top: 60%;
    width:80%;
    margin-left: 10%;
    margin-right: 10%;
    margin-bottom: 100%
  }
  @media screen and (orientation:landscape){
    .modal-dialog{
      margin-top: 70;
      width:80%;
      margin-left: 10%;
      margin-right: 10%;
      margin-bottom: 100%
    }
  }
  .modal-body{
    text-align: center;
  }
  .modal-body p{
    margin:14px 0px;
    font-size: 110%;
  }
  .modal-content{
    border-radius: 10px;
  }
  .modal-footer{
    padding:0px;
  }
  .modal-footer a{
    padding: 15px;
  }
  .modal-footer a:nth-child(1){
    border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 10px;
  }
  .modal-footer a:nth-child(2){
    border-radius: 0px 0px 10px 0px;
  }
  </style>
  <h2>Basic Modal Example</h2>
  <div data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Div for modal</div>
    <div class="modal fade" id="myModal" role="dialog">
      <div class="modal-dialog">
        <div class="modal-content">
          <div class="modal-body">
            <p>确定要取消本次订单嘛?</p>
          </div>
          <div class="modal-footer">
            <div class="btn-group btn-group-justified">
              <a href="#" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">取消</a>
              <a href="#" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">确定</a>
            </div>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
</div>

Solution 32 - Css

set modal center to screen

.modal {
  text-align: center;
  padding: 0!important;
}
.modal:before {
  content: '';
  display: inline-block;
  height: 100%;
  vertical-align: middle;
  margin-right: -4px;
}
.modal-dialog {
  display: inline-block;
  text-align: left;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

Solution 33 - Css

The simplest solution is to add modal dialog styles to the top of the page or import css with this code:

<style>
    .modal-dialog {
    position:absolute;
    top:50% !important;
    transform: translate(0, -50%) !important;
    -ms-transform: translate(0, -50%) !important;
    -webkit-transform: translate(0, -50%) !important;
    margin:auto 50%;
    width:40%;
    height:40%;
    }
</style>

Modal declaration:

    <div class="modal fade" id="exampleModalCenter" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalCenterTitle" aria-hidden="true">
	<div class="modal-dialog">
		<div class="modal-content">
			<div class="modal-header">
				<h5 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalLongTitle">Modal title</h5>
				<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
					<span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
				</button>
			</div>
			<div class="modal-body">
				...
			</div>
			<div class="modal-footer">
				<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
				<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
			</div>
		</div>
	</div>
</div>

Modal usage:

<a data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModalCenter">
 ...
</a>
