You can do this by setting the display property to "flex." Then define the align-items and justify-content property to “center.” This will tell the browser to center the flex item (the div within the div) vertically and horizontally.


Here is an example with CSS and inline style attributes:

td 
{
    height: 50px; 
    width: 50px;
}

#cssTable td 
{
    text-align: center; 
    vertical-align: middle;
}
<table border="1">
    <tr>
        <td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;">Text</td>
        <td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;">Text</td>
    </tr>
</table>

<table border="1" id="cssTable">
    <tr>
        <td>Text</td>
        <td>Text</td>
    </tr>
</table>

EDIT: The valign attribute is deprecated in HTML5 and should not be used.


The CSS to center text in your td elements is

td {
  text-align: center;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

HTML in line styling example:

<td style='text-align:center; vertical-align:middle'></td> 

CSS file example:

td {
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

Try to put this in your CSS file.

td {
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
}
