CSS - Multi Line Wrapping

If you can help i just want to have some guidance with regards to the following problem.enter image description here

Basically if I have too much text in the description of the image, it pushes the image up. What would be the most attractive way of dealing with such an issue?

Thanks.

I created a basic fiddle - re-size the window to get them inline

JSFiddle

div.gallery {
  border: 1px solid #ccc;
}

div.gallery:hover {
    border: 1px solid #777;
}

div.gallery img {
    width: 30%;
    height: auto;
}

div.desc {
    padding: 15px;
    text-align: center;
}

* {
    box-sizing: border-box;
}

.responsive {
    padding: 0 6px;
    display: inline-block;
    width: 15.99999%;
}

@media only screen and (max-width: 700px){
    .responsive {
        width: 49.99999%;
        margin: 6px 0;
    }
}

@media only screen and (max-width: 500px){
    .responsive {
        width: 100%;
    }
}

.clearfix:after {
    content: "";
    display: table;
    clear: both;
}
Solution

  • For future peoples, I decided that a flex solution would really help me here.

    I created the following css code:

    .file-wrapper {
    flex-direction: row;
    flex-flow: row wrap;
    justify-content: center;
    display: flex;
}
.file-image {
    padding: 30px;
}

.file-box {
    text-align: center;
    padding: 1em;
    flex-basis: 10em;
    margin: 1em;
}

.fileTextWrapper {
    display: table;
    width: 100%;
    height: 3em;
}
.file-text {
    display: table-cell;
    vertical-align: middle;
    text-align: center;
    width: 100%;
}

    The HTML is very self explanatory. The wrapper contains all the elements, and then I have divs for the mages and their descriptions. By doing this not only are they responsive but they are aligned in the centre and the text is wrapped nicely.
