change horizontal-form to align left (bootstrap)

i want the contact form be aligned left. But it always aligns at center. I tried an hour to align this, now i am at the end with my knowledge.

I uploaded the website here:

http://jsfiddle.net/uetc8ed4/

<body>

    <div class="col-lg-4 col-md-5 col-sm-12" style="font-size: 2em;background-color: white; color: #f97d04; padding-left: 10px; padding-top: 5px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-right: 10px;">
        &gt;&gt; <a id="start" class="" href="./kontakt_files/kontakt.html">Startseite</a> / 
        <a id="referenzen" href="./kontakt_files/kontakt.html">Referenzen</a> / 
        <a href="./kontakt_files/kontakt.html" id="kontakt" class="active">Kontakt</a>
    </div>



    <div style="padding-top: 55px" class="col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-12">
    </div>

    <div id="content">
<div style="background-image: url(&#39;kontaktbg.jpg&#39;);background-size: cover;">
<div class="container" style="">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-md-12">
                <form class="form-horizontal" method="post">
                    <fieldset>
                        <h1>Kontaktieren Sie webFuchs</h1>                    
                        <div class="form-group">

In your case I think the form with css class form-horizontal is left align and the div inside it with css class form-group is also left align. you use col-md-offset-x class of bootstrap which is giving the space on left side.

Jsfiddle

Css change made to button

.text-adjust {
    text-align: left;
 }

The .container css has the following:

.container {
    padding-right: 15px;
    padding-left: 15px;
    margin-right: auto;
    margin-left: auto
}

Setting margin-left and margin-right to auto will cause the element to be center horizontally.

The bootstrap class .container has a set width (depending on screen size) and auto margins (which put the content in the centre). You could override the class or not use .container. I would override container (less work)

In your CSS

#content .container{
    margin:2px;
}

The culprit seems to be Bootstrap's .form-control class - part of its style is to set the width of the element to 100%. To correct this, override the style in your local CSS (should be referenced after the Bootstrap CSS file):

.form-control { width: 30%; }

... or whatever value suits your needs.
