Achieve a centered <div> using only HTML and CSS without relying on Bootstrap. Here’s how you can do it:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Centered Div Example</title>
<style>
/* Apply full height and remove margins from body */
body, html {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
/* Style for the centered div */
.centered-div {
padding: 20px;
border: 2px solid #ccc;
background-color: #f4f4f4;
text-align: center;
box-shadow: 0 4px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
/* Make the content responsive */
@media (max-width: 600px) {
.centered-div {
padding: 15px;
}
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<!-- Centered Div -->
<div class="centered-div">
<h2>This is a centered div!</h2>
<p>Resize the browser to see responsiveness in action.</p>
</div>
</body>
