Google Chrome placement alignment issue

Question

In Google Chrome, when using placeholder in a text input with a height of 30 pixels, the text of the place owner is vertically aligned at the top

How can I make it sit in the vertical middle of text input?

Answer 1

The current version of Chrome violates the alignment of the placeholder text because it is broken in the current WebKit. Unfortunately, you will not be able to do this using your own placeholders until it is fixed.

• Chromium bug 72413
• WebKit Error 54797

Update: According to the Chromium bug, the patch should be sent to Chrome 14.

Answer 2

At the same time, you can use padding-top to bring the text down.
