Center Div inside another (100% width) div?

. Parent { text-align: center; } . Parent > .

Child { margin: 0 auto; width: 900px; }.

I was missing the text-align it seems as I had the margin and wasn't working. Accepted, cheers. – Shadi Almosri Sep 14 '09 at 20:16 text-align:center does not help with centering the inner div.

The below style to the inner div will center it. Margin: 0 auto.

The key is the margin: 0 auto; on the inner div. A proof-of-concept example: Test.

2 This is a good answer as it's crucial to have the right doc type if you're using the margin: 0 auto technique – ScottE Sep 14 '09 at 21:00.

For detail info, let's say the code below will make a div aligned center: margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; or simply use: margin: 0 auto; but bear in mind, the above CSS code only works when you specify a fixed width (not 100%) on your html element. So the complete solution for your issue would be: . Your-inner-div { margin: 0 auto; width: 900px; }.

This is a great example because you correctly explicitly point out that a width on the inner div is required. – Bill Ayakatubby Oct 4 '09 at 16:22.

Just add margin: 0 auto; to the inside div.

. Outerdiv { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; display: table; } Doesn't work in internet explorer 7... but who cares?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
