1. Use the text-align attribute to center the text horizontally.
The text-align attribute specifies the horizontal alignment of the text in the element. Set the text by using the center value. Centered.
text-align is a basic attribute that affects how lines of text in an element are aligned with each other. The values left, right, and center will cause the text in the element to be left-aligned, right-aligned, and centered respectively. If you want to center the text, just use center.
This attribute sets the centering of some inline objects (or similar elements) such as text and img tags.
This attribute has the following characteristics:
1) The center of text-align is applied to a container. It only targets the text in the container and the display in the container is inline or inline. -Block container, if the display of the container inside is block, the content of the container inside will not be centered.
2), text-align is downwardly transitive and will continue to be passed to child elements. If you set a div, the content in its child divs will also be centered.
