I have a div which I need to center vertically its content:
Free coffee for all the people who visit my restaurant&l
Line-height
will give a vertical height to all the lines in the para, since you have absolute positioned div
and there is a paragraph
inside, you'll need a child div to align them vertically!
DEMO
CSS :
#coffee {
width: 300px;
}
#coffee > .mid {
margin-top:25%;
text-align:center
}
HTML
<div draggable="false" id="coffee" style="position: absolute; overflow: auto; text-align: left; font-size: 23px; color: rgb(26, 66, 108); font-family: roboto, Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; -webkit-transition: none; transition: none; left: 0px; top: 67.125px; height: 234.93749999999997px; opacity: 1;border:1px solid #000">
<div class="mid">
Free coffee for all the people who visit my restaurant
</div>
</div>
You have to add a second div to achieve this.
<div draggable="false" id="coffee" style="position: absolute; overflow: auto; text-align: left; font-size: 23px; color: rgb(26, 66, 108); font-family: roboto, Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; -webkit-transition: none; transition: none; left: 0px; top: 67.125px; height: 234.93749999999997px; opacity: 1;">
<div class="inner">
Free coffee for all the people who visit my restaurant
</div>
</div>
#coffee {
display: table;
width: 300px;
background-color: red;
}
#coffee .inner{
vertical-align: middle;
display: table-cell;
}

Is this what you're trying to achieve?
HTML
<div draggable="false" id="coffee" style="position: absolute; overflow: auto; vertical-align: middle; font-size: 23px; color: rgb(26, 66, 108); font-family: roboto, Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; -webkit-transition: none; transition: none; left: 0px; top: 67px; height: 235px; opacity: 1;"><span class="marqtext">Free coffee for all the people who visit my restaurant</span></div>
CSS
#coffee {
line-height: 235px;
width: 300px;
}
.marqtext {
display:table-cell;
position:relative;
top:180px;
text-align:center;
}
If your inner div has a flexible height you can center it using CSS transforms:
#coffee {
width: 300px;
position:relative;
}
#coffee > div {
background:#ddffff;
position:absolute;
top:50%;
max-height:100%;
-webkit-transform:translateY(-50%);
-moz-transform:translateY(-50%);
transform:translateY(-50%);
}
