Warning: This is a property of the original CSS Flexible Box Layout Module standard which is being replaced by a new standard.
See Flexbox for more information.
Summary
The CSS box-align property specifies how an element aligns its contents across (perpendicular to) the direction of its layout. The effect of this is only visible if there is extra space in the box. See Flexbox for more about the properties of flexbox elements.
The direction of layout depends on the element's orientation: horizontal or vertical.
| Initial value | stretch |
|---|---|
| Applies to | elements with a CSS display value of box or inline-box |
| Inherited | no |
| Media | visual |
| Computed value | as specified |
| Animatable | no |
| Canonical order | the unique non-ambiguous order defined by the formal grammar |
Syntax
start | center | end | baseline | stretch
Values
start- The box aligns contents at the start, leaving any extra space at the end.
center- The box aligns contents in the center, dividing any extra space equally between the start and the end.
end- The box aligns contents at the end, leaving any extra space at the start.
baseline- The box aligns the baselines of the contents (lining up the text). This only applies if the box's orientation is horizontal.
stretch- The box stretches the contents so that there is no extra space in the box.
Examples
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>CSS box-align example</title>
<style>
div.example {
display: box; /* As specified */
display: -moz-box; /* Mozilla */
display: -webkit-box; /* WebKit */
/* Make this box taller than the children,
so there is room for the box-pack */
height: 400px;
/* Make this box wider than the children
so there is room for the box-align */
width: 300px;
/* Children should be oriented vertically */
box-orient: vertical; /* As specified */
-moz-box-orient: vertical; /* Mozilla */
-webkit-box-orient: vertical; /* WebKit */
/* Align children to the horizontal center of this box */
box-align: center; /* As specified */
-moz-box-align: center; /* Mozilla */
-webkit-box-align: center; /* WebKit */
/* Pack children to the bottom of this box */
box-pack: end; /* As specified */
-moz-box-pack: end; /* Mozilla */
-webkit-box-pack: end; /* WebKit */
}
div.example > p {
/* Make children narrower than their parent,
so there is room for the box-align */
width: 200px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="example">
<p>I will be second from the bottom of div.example, centered horizontally.</p>
<p>I will be on the bottom of div.example, centered horizontally.</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Notes
The edge of the box designated the start for alignment purposes depends on the box's orientation:
| Horizontal | top |
|---|---|
| Vertical | left |
The edge opposite to the start is designated the end.
If the alignment is set using the element's align attribute, then the style is ignored.
