How to align an input tag to the center without specifying the width?
I have these HTML and CSS:
#siteInfo input[type="button"] {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #66A3D2;
border-color: #FFFFFF #327CB5 #327CB5 #FFFFFF;
border-radius: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
box-shadow: 1px 1px 3px #333333;
color: #FFFFFF;
cursor: pointer;
font-weight: bold;
padding: 5px;
text-align: center;
text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000;
}
<div id="siteInfo">
<p>Some paragraph.</p>
<input type="button" value="Some Button">
</div>
I'd like the button to be aligned to the center; however, even with text-align: center
in the CSS, is still on the left. I also don't want to specify the width since I'd like it to change with the length of the text. How do I do that?
I know the solution to this is simple but I can't find a proper way to do it. I would sometimes wrap it around a <p>
tag that is center aligned but that's extra mark-up which I'd like to avoid.
You need to put the text-align:center
on the containing div, not on the input itself.
You can use the following CSS for your input field:
.center-block {
display: block;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left: auto;
}
Then,update your input field as following:
<input class="center-block" type="button" value="Some Button">
write this:
#siteInfo{text-align:center}
p, input{display:inline-block}

you can use this two simple line code :
display: block;
margin:auto;
