355 PointsMy text isn't centring on the website any longer. I noticed Nick's order of CSS had changed in this video
to how it was previously so I changed my CSS order to match his, now my header appears to one side of the browser instead of being in the centre. Should my # logo text align code be in a specific place for this to work? Thank you!

355 PointsHi Virat! Thanks for stopping by! Basically before the heading 'Nick Pettit (I changed mine to say 'Miaow Mail') was in the middle of the webpage.
I changed the order of my CSS to match Nick's in the video and now my heading is to one side, I can't figure out what I should do to put my heading back in the centre. Thank you!

Courses Plus Student 2,135 Pointsgive header text-align:center property because anchor element i.e <a href=""> is a child of header element
