Problems with HTML and CSS: Icon and navigation bar issue

June 11, 2022

I’m following a YouTube video about making websites and his website looks like this:

and mine looks like this:

As you can see, the icon is in the navigation bar and itself has a little of space between the Google web browser bar, and my website doesn’t have all of this.

I looked the lowercase letters and to my it’s fine everything, look any grammar error and frankly don’t see any error

This is my code:

HTML

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

            <div class="logo">
                <h2>Pomodone</h2>
            </div>
            <div class="search">
                <input type="text" id="search" placeholder="search here">

    top: 15px; 
    cursor: pointer;
}

.user{

    height: 50px;

    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    height: 100%;
    width: 100%;

}

Thank you in advance

>Solution :

@Iomipac, you need to set position to the label.
Please add this style. Hope it is helpful~.

.search >label {
            position: absolute;
            right: 15px;
            top: 50%;
            transform: translateY(-50%);
        }

* {
            padding: 0;
            margin: 0;
            box-sizing: border-box;
            font-family: 'poppins', sans-serif;
