CSS Block - Align (Left, Center, Right)

Box Center

The box will be centered not the content. As a box takes by default 100% of its space, you need to set a width to see the effect.

The width of the content is 1110 even if the max-width is 1140 because of the padding because the box sizing is set to border-box

<MATH> 1110 = 1140 - 15 -15 </MATH>

To space the box, the following element were used:

• CSS - Padding to set the gutter
• margin auto to center the box horizontally

Implementation:

• Pure Css. It's centering the box not the text. As by default a box has a 100% length, you need to set the length to see the effect.

.center-box {
    margin-left:auto;
    margin-right:auto; /* or margin: 0 auto; */
    width:fit-content;
    border: 1px solid black;
}

<h1 class="center-box">Center</h1>

class="mx-auto" style="width: 200px;"

Box Right

.right-box {
    margin-left:auto;
    width:fit-content;
    border: 1px solid black;
}

<h1 class="right-box">Right</h1>
