587d78a3367417b2b2512ad0 Center an Element Horizontally Using the margin Property 0 https://scrimba.com/c/cyLJqU4 301043

--description--

Another positioning technique is to center a block element horizontally. One way to do this is to set its margin to a value of auto.

This method works for images, too. Images are inline elements by default, but can be changed to block elements when you set the display property to block.

--instructions--

Center the div on the page by adding a margin property with a value of auto.

--hints--

The div should have a margin set to auto.

assert(code.match(/margin:\s*?auto;/g));
