Center div on the middle of screen

CssSemantic Ui

Css Problem Overview


What is the best pattern to align a semantic ui grid in the middle of the screen?

the css for this will ideal be this one.

.div{
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    margin-top: -50px;
    margin-left: -50px;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
}

But on semantic this dont look well with grids.

This is part of my html.

 <div class="ui grid container">
    <div class="ui center aligned three column grid">
      <div class="column">
      </div>
      <div class="column">
        </div>
      </div>
  </div>

Css Solutions


Solution 1 - Css

This should work with any div or screen size:

.center-screen {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  text-align: center;
  min-height: 100vh;
}

 <html>
 <head>
 </head>
 <body>
 <div class="center-screen">
 I'm in the center
 </div>
 </body>
 </html>

See more details about flex here. This should work on most of the browsers, see compatibility matrix here.

Update: If you don't want the scroll bar, make min-height smaller, for example min-height: 95vh;

2018: CSS3

div{
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    margin-right: -50%;
    transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}

This is even shorter. For more information see this: CSS: Centering Things

Solution 3 - Css

The best way to align a div in center both horizontally and vertically will be

HTML

<div></div>

CSS:

div {
    position: absolute;
    top:0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    margin: auto;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    background-color: blue;
}

Solution 4 - Css

Try this:

 div{
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    margin-top: -50px;
    margin-left: -50px;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    background: red;
}

Here div is html tag. You wrote a html tag followed by a dot that is wrong.Only a class is written followed by dot.

Your code is correct you just used .div instead of div

HTML

<div class="ui grid container">

  </div>
  <div class="column">
    </div>
  </div>

CSS

div{
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
