> Intuitively, this would center a box in its containing element and also cause it to take the width of its contained text A CSS WG member would probably explain it better, but floats do more than alignment and shrink-to-fit. They are also out-of-flow and have some behaviors which might not be obvious how should generalize in float:center or other arbitrary positions. If you only want centering and shrink-to-fit, you can use margin: 0 auto; /* Center horizontally */ width: fit-content; /* shrink-to-fit */ The latter may need vendor prefixes. Other possibilities are display:inline-block, CSS tables, flexbox, etc. OriolReceived on Tuesday, 9 August 2016 17:54:59 UTC
