<video width="100%" height="100%" autoplay loop muted playsinline> How to center the content?

The provided HTML code snippet defines a <video> element with several attributes:

  • width="100%" and height="100%": These set the video dimensions to take up 100% of its parent container's width and height.
  • autoplay: This makes the video start playing automatically as soon as it loads.
  • loop: This makes the video replay automatically once it ends.
  • muted: This ensures the audio for the video is muted.
  • playsinline: This allows the video to play inline within the page rather than opening in full-screen mode, particularly on mobile devices.

How to center the content

To center the video both horizontally and vertically, you can use CSS. For example:

<div style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; height: 100vh;">
  <video width="100%" height="100%" autoplay loop muted playsinline>
    <source src="your-video.mp4" type="video/mp4">
    Your browser does not support the video tag.
  </video>
</div>

In this example:

  • display: flex: Makes the parent container a flexbox.
  • justify-content: center: Horizontally centers the video.
  • align-items: center: Vertically centers the video.
  • height: 100vh: Sets the height of the parent container to the full height of the viewport.
