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,

Alan.

Use it inside a label. Use vertical-align to set it to various values -- bottom, baseline, middle etc.
