How do you align input texts? - html

Question

I was trying to make a form with a username, password and an email. But for some reason the input text or the box for email isn't aligned with the boxes for the username and the password. I was wondering if there's a way to make them all align each other.
<form>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" id="username" name="username" maxlength="30"><br><br>
<label for="password">Password</label>
<input type="password" id="password" name="password"><br><br>
<label for="email">Email</label>
<input type="email" id="email" name="email" maxlength="30">
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Register">
</form>
It's just for the sake of making everything look nice and pretty.

Oh man... Tables?? HTML from '90s incoming!
<style>
label {
width: 80px;
display: inline-block;
}
</style>
<form>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" id="username" name="username" maxlength="30"><br><br>
<label for="password">Password</label>
<input type="password" id="password" name="password"><br><br>
<label for="email">Email</label>
<input type="email" id="email" name="email" maxlength="30">
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Register">
</form>

I went for a different approach than a table, since if your are going to table up your form, I suggest you use a solid css framework, which is simply better.
This is the approach of CSS only A Cool Fiddle
form {
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
label, input {
/* in order to define widths */
display: inline-block;
}
label {
width: 30%;
/* positions the label text beside the input */
text-align: right;
}
label + input {
width: 30%;
/* large margin-right to force the next element to the new-line
and margin-left to create a gutter between the label and input */
margin: 0 30% 0 4%;
}
/* only the submit button is matched by this selector,
but to be sure you could use an id or class for that button */
input + input {
float: right;
}
input[type="submit"]{
margin: 4% 40%;
}
With all that said, I also suggest you change the old way of forms being written with label values to placeholder.
for more reference Placeholders are cool!

<form>
<table>
<tr> <td> <label for="username">Username</label> </td> <td> <input type="text" id="username" name="username" maxlength="30"> </td> </tr>
<tr> <td> <label for="password">Password</label> </td> <td> <input type="password" id="password" name="password"></td> </tr>
<tr> <td> <label for="email">Email</label> </td> <td><input type="email" id="email" name="email" maxlength="30"></td> </tr>
<tr> <td></td> <td> <input type="submit" value="Register"> </td> </tr>
</table>
</form>
should work, just surroundet it with a table.

<table>
<form>
<tr>
<td> <label for="username">Username</label></td>
<td> <input type="text" id="username" name="username" maxlength="30"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="password">Password</label></td>
<td><input type="password" id="password" name="password"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="email">Email</label></td>
<td><input type="email" id="email" name="email" maxlength="30"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type="submit" value="Register"></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
It is always a good practice to make any form in either a Table or in a Div.
