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

Link to the challenge:

Hello there.

Please Tell us what’s happening in your own words.

Learning to describe problems is hard, but it is an important part of learning how to code.

Also, the more information you give us, the more likely we are to be able to help.

You have to set the top and bottom margins to 1em and the left and right margins to auto.

Note: You can use the margin property to set all of the margins.(It is used without any commas)
For Example: margin: 10px 0 20px 4px

few things to note:

  • in simple words, css rules with multiple value assignments like these are denoted as such: “top” “right” “bottom” “left”,
  • you’re supposed to use “auto” for those two other(i.e. left and right) values “auto” and not “0”, they are completely two different things

perhaps a reading through this mdn article about margin, would help even more, happy learning :slight_smile: margin - CSS: Cascading Style Sheets | MDN
