Why does the image in my `<img>` tag appear larger than its specified width within a flex container?
Why does the image in my <img> tag appear larger than its specified width within a flex container? Here’s my HTML and CSS code:
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<img src="image.jpg" alt="Sample Image" class="image">
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS (styles.css):
.container {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
width: 300px;
height: 200px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
.image {
width: 100px;
height: auto;
}
I expected the image to be 100 pixels wide, but it appears larger than that within the flex container. What am I doing wrong in the CSS that’s causing the image to not adhere to the specified width?

Did you try adding display: block to the .image class?
