Hi

I have made a button with text which lies into a <div> with a class in HTML. I wonder how I can move the text up or down on the button? I've tried padding and "text-align: center" without success. Please help!

This is the css-code:
#hk .kassen {
background: url(../designbilder/btn_kassen.png);
width:84px;
height:30px;
margin: 1px 0 0 -40px;
border: none;
position: absolute;
color: #fff;
}
 
Vertical centering in HTML and CSS is not easy. And the solution depends on what you're doing. If you only have one line of text, then switching [tt]height: 30px;[/tt] with [tt]line-height: 30px;[/tt] will do the trick. If you need more than one line, then the solution is much more complex.
