      height:100px;
      background-color:lightgreen;
      text-align: center;
    }
    </style>
    
    <div class="container">
      Hello world
    </div>
    refresh done
    try it online

    Align span in middle horizontally

    <style type="text/css">
    .container {
      width: 200px;
      height:100px;
      background-color:lightgreen;
      text-align: center;
    }
    .container span {background-color:lightgray;}
    </style>
    
    <div class="container">
      <span>Hello world</span>
    </div>
    refresh done
    try it online

    Align input field in middle horizontally

    .container {
      width: 200px;
      height:100px;
      background-color:lightgreen;
      text-align: center;
    }
    </style>
