CSS Tips n Tricks: How to Center a Div (center a web page) with CSS
We can center a static div by specifying two css properties:
1. Specify a Width (in px, em, or %)
2. Set the margins to auto for left and right.
Example of a Style Declaration that centers a static div:
#container { width: 900px; margin: 0 auto; }
margin: 0 auto; is the shorthand way to indicate 0px for the top and bottom margin and auto for the left and right margin.
Note: we cannot center a layer or an absolutely positioned div, only a
static div. A static div is the default state of a div.
