Tell us what’s happening:

Shouldn’t the elements stack on top of eachother, since they’re all display: block; ? Also, i noticed the height is 320px when inspected, is that connected to it?

Actually no. You see the way everything is setup right now, you have each element inside your container taking up the 100% of the space it can take up. It’s pretty close to default browser behavior in Firefox.

As for the height, the height of each element is dependent on your zoom. Though I am curious which element you were inspecting and how you were retrieving it’s height. On my screen and inspection, it remains unchanged with the container’s display to block.

Hi there, i made a mistake and switched height and width when inspecting, so thats cleared up. i updated the css:

what style should i use to stack the elements on top of eachother?

label {
  display: block;
}

is that the normal way to stack the element when making a form field? i guess i could also have used br

.container {
  display: block;
  width: 600px;
  margin: auto;
}
