HTML input elements

can somebody please review my code and explain why the form elements display horizontally and not vertically ?

<!doctype html>

<html lang="en">

<head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/style.css"> <title>My Form</title> </head>

<body>

    <form action="index.html" method="post">

        <h1> Sign Up </h1>

    <input type="text" id="name" name="user_name">
    <input type="Email" id="mail" name="user_email">
    <input type="password" id="password" name="user_password">

    </form>

</body> </html>

Hey, that is the default behaviour of input elements. If you wan them to display vertically, you have to specify that in the css. 

input{
  display:block;
}
