Most browsers inject their own default CSS properties and values for different elements. If you look closely, you might be able to notice the file input is smaller than the other text input elements. By default, a padding of 1px 2px is given to input elements you can type in.

Using another attribute selector, style the input with a type of file to be the same padding as the other input elements.

Challenge: Learn HTML Forms by Building a Registration Form - Step 56

Link to the challenge:

input{
 type:submit;
padding: 1px 2px;}

Look at the attribute selector for the type="submit"

input[type="submit"] {
}

You need to use the same syntax with type="file"
