How do I vertically align a div inside of another div? – SEO

I’ve looked at other posts but they aren’t working for me. My website (http://www.jacksewell.uk/) has a modal that fades in when you click the “Hire Me” button. Currently its not centred vertically but it is centred horizontally. I would like the modal to be centred both horizontally and vertically. Any help?
Thanks 😀

Here the markup and CSS (Sass) for the modal:

HTML:

<!-- The Modal -->
        <div id="myModal" class="modal">

        <!-- Modal content -->
        <div class="modal-content">
          <div class="modal-header">
            <span class="close">×</span>
              <h2>Ready to start your next project?</h2>
          </div>
          <div class="modal-body">
            <form action="form_submit.php">
                <span id="name">Name: </span><br><input type="text" name="client-name">
                <br><br>
                <span id="company">Company : </span><br><input type="text" name="company-name">
                <br><br>
                <span>Service: </span><br><select name="Service">
                <option value="Website">Website Devlelopemnt</option>
                <option value="Design">Design related tasks</option>
                <option value="SEO">SEO Related tasks</option>
                <option value="All">Full Package (Website designed & developed with SEO)</option>
              </select>
              <br><br>
                <span id="info">Extra Detail : </span>
                <br>
                <textarea rows="4" cols="50">Please add more detail about what you are looking for.
                </textarea>
                <br><br>
              <input type="submit">
            </form>
          </div>
        </div>
       </div>

    You can use flexbox. Flexbox is currently not working on IE 9 and 8, but it is fine on every other browser as you can see here.

    You just have to add this css to your .modal class ( the parent of your .modal-content):

    .modal { 
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: center;
  // Your css goes here, without the display:block;
}
