This article shows how to center an image horizontally. So, let's dive right in.
 
Step 1
 
The first thing we need to do is to create an HTML file and put the following in it.
  1. <html>  
  2. <head>  
  3.     <title></title>  
  4. </head>  
  5. <body>  
  6.     <img src="images/1.jpg" width="300px" height="300px">  
  7.     <p>  
  8.         Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod  
  9.         tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam,  
  10.         quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo  
  11.         consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse  
  12.         cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non  
  13.         proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.  
  14.     </p>  
  15. </body>  
  16. </html>  
Save this HTML file and give it the name Index.html.
 
Open the file in a browser.

Currently, our image is aligned to its default position.
 
Step 2
 
The next step is to create an external stylesheet file and give it the name style.css and in the head section of your HTML file write the following:
  1. <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css">  
The preceding is nothing but the address location of our CSS file.
 
Step 3
 
There are two ways to center an image horizontally.
  1. Add an image element inside the div container element.
     
    Add image element
     
    Create a new rule in style.css with the following:
     
    style
     
    Refresh the page.
     
    Refresh the page
     
  2. Another way to do it is by changing the display property of the image element to a block-level element.
     
    But first, remove the img element from the div element.
     
    lement
     
    Refresh the page and you will see the image is now back to its initial position.

    In the CSS file create a new rule and write the following:
     
    Margin
The margin is set to 0 (top), 0 (left), 0 (bottom) and 0 (right).
 
Or you can also say:
 
css file
 
Refresh the page.
 
Refresh
