[css] Vertically aligning text next to a radio button

This is a basic CSS question, I have a radio button with a small text label after it. I want the text to appear centered vertically but the text is always aligned with the button of the radio button in my case.

<p><input type="radio" id="opt1" name="opt1" value="1" />A label</p>

Here is a Jsfiddle:

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

You need to align the text to the left of radio button using float:left

input[type="radio"]{
float:left;
}

You may use label too for more responsive output.

Used to this

    input[type="radio"]{
    vertical-align:top;
    }
p{
    font-size:10px;line-height: 18px;
}

Demo

I think this is what you might be asking for

CSS

label{
  font-size:18px;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

input[type="radio"]{
  vertical-align: middle;
}

HTML

<span>
  <input type="radio" id="oddsPref" name="oddsPref" value="decimal" />
  <label>Decimal</label>
</span>

simple and short solution add below style:

style="vertical-align: text-bottom;"

This will give dead on alignment

input[type="radio"] {
  margin-top: 1px;
  vertical-align: top;
}

input.radio {vertical-align:middle; margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:12px;}

SIMPLY Adjust top and bottom as needed for PERFECT ALIGNMENT of radio button or checkbox

<input type="radio" class="radio">

HTML:

<label><input type="radio" id="opt1" name="opt1" value="1"> A label</label>

CSS:

label input[type="radio"] { vertical-align: text-bottom; }

You could also try something like this:

input[type="radio"] {_x000D_
  margin-top: -1px;_x000D_
  vertical-align: middle;_x000D_
}

  <label  class="child"><input id = "warm" type="radio" name="weathertype" value="warm" checked> Warm<br></label>_x000D_
<label class="child1"><input id = "cold" type="radio" name="weathertype" value="cold" checked> Cold<br></label>

You may try something like;

<p><input type="radio" id="oddsPref" name="oddsPref" value="decimal" /><span>Decimal</span></p>

and give the span a margin top like;

span{
    margin-top: 4px;
    position:absolute;
}
