![]() ![]() The way to make block elements stack next to each other is to use Method 1 or to use Float left or right, but it’s not possible to center floated elements without doing more complex layout stuff. An element set to inline-block is very similar to inline in that it will set inline with the natural flow of text (on the baseline). They do not stack next to each other like Inline-block elements if their widths are small enough to fit next to each other in the parent element. Block elements stack on top of each other. ![]() This is obvious with buttons and blocks, but not so obvious with text and images. Not good for text elements.Īdditional Info: When you set an element to Display: Block the width of the element becomes 100% by default, so it will expand the full width of the parent element. Pros: In this method you only have to add CSS to the element, not the parent element as well.Ĭons: You have to set a width on the element (pixels or percent width). If you are trying to center typography just align your text to center. ![]() If you don’t want elements to stack next to each other you will have to set some or all of the elements to be Display: Block, which stack on top of each other instead of next to each other. With the Inline Block setting you can stack elements right next to each other as well. So if it’s an image it will be the width of the image or if it’s a text element the width will become as wide as the text is. Pros: Perfect if you want all the elements inside of the parent element to be centered, so only has to be done once.Ĭons: You have to set styles on the parent element instead of just the element.Īdditional Info: When you set an element to Display: Inline Block, the width of the element is automatically calculated by the contents of the element. We were able to align text using text-align, center blocks using auto margins, and in table or inline-block layouts using the vertical-align property. Please note that vertical-align only affects inline, inline-block, inline-table, and table cell elements. CSS traditionally had very limited alignment capabilities. Change the alignment of elements with the vertical-alignment utilities. First, it is important to know the difference between pronouncing vowels and consonants.
