I used this jQuery script to center my div based on browsers window resolution. However I can’t get it working. What am I missing here?

I posted it in jsFiddle for better understanding here http://jsfiddle.net/9wvt3/

jQuery.fn.center = function () {
    this.css("position","absolute");
    this.css("top", (($(window).height() - this.outerHeight()) / 2) + $(window).scrollTop() + "px");
    this.css("left", (($(window).width() - this.outerWidth()) / 2) + $(window).scrollLeft() + "px");
    return this;
}
$(#main).center();

    This:

    $(#main).center(); 
    

    Should probably be:

    $('#main').center();
    

    Note the ' in the $() function argument.
