Remove the white space characters (spaces and new lines) between the tags in the HTML. — Quentin, Apr 07 '22 at 14:10
you are not saying much if you don't include the css. Anyway maybe set margin: 0 on both elements (input and button)? — Diego De Vita, Apr 07 '22 at 14:11
Include CSS if you want us to be able to show you whats wrong here. — Stoff, Apr 07 '22 at 14:13

an idea can be to use position of button inside container

if container position is relative you can set button to position absolute

.search-engine-container {
  position: relative;
}

.search-engine-container button {
  position:absolute;
}

<div class="search-engine-container">
        <i class="search icon"></i>
        <input type="text" id="search_input" placeholder="...البحث عن المنتجات">
        <button id="clear-search-engine">x</button>
</div>

You can add display: flex; to your .search-engine-container class.

.search-engine-container {
  display:flex;  
}

<div class="elm"></div>
<div class="search-engine-container">
    <i class="search icon"></i>
    <input type="text" id="search_input" placeholder="...البحث عن المنتجات">
    <button id="clear-search-engine">x</button>
</div>

A way is seting margin:

button{
  margin: -5px;
}

<div class="search-engine-container">
        <i class="search icon"></i>
        <input type="text" id="search_input" placeholder="...البحث عن المنتجات">
        <button id="clear-search-engine">x</button>
</div>

the probem was in the white space We can remove white space by setting parent element font-size to 0 and child elements font-size to 17px

The space is probably because of the margin around the input or around the button to remove it use the code below:

#search_input {
    margin: 0;
}
#clear-search-engine {
    margin: 0;
}

If this didn't work then the problem isn't because of margin but you still can fix it using margin:

#search_input {
        margin-right: -5px;
}

And you can adjust the number of pixels as you want.
