type or paste code here

Hey @santiaguson the reason is because you have set input width to 100% and checkboxes and radios are also inputs, you can get around this by using input:not() in css, example below

 input:not([type="checkbox"]):not([type="radio"]), textarea, select{
            width: 100%;
            margin: 0px;
            padding: 1%;
            background-color: rgb(243, 239, 239);
        }

Thank you so much!!
I hope my code was organized enough. At the moment I am doing freecodecamp and codecademy, with the goal of one day becoming a front end developer. I am looking for a mentor, let me know if that is something you are interested in. Again, thank you… it finally looks the way its suppose to :slight_smile: Have a good one!
