Will the paragraph appears center in the page?

Question

I just came up with this question in a challenge. Given markup as follows.

<p align="center">Text</p>

We all know that the <p> element is a block level element and will never be centered unless someone makes it as a inline element. Here only the "Text", paragraph text will be aligned in center format. I would like to know about your thoughts on this question.

For the record correct answer was the "Yes". But I guess it should be "No" since it asks about the paragraph element itself.

Answer 1

Yes, text inside p tag with align attribute set to center would make the text center, due to p is display block which occupy 100% width of parent.

if you set p tag to inline, its text can't be center even though with align attribute set to center, since p tag is not 100% width now.

There is a text node inside p tag, you must take into consideration in alignment.

Answer 2

Thanks to both. I think the question should be more specific. Just my personal thoughts.

Answer 3

I think that it is asking about the content in the paragraph. I think that this question is right.
