Let’s say you have the following chunk of code:
<div id='container'> <someelement>This is any element.</someelement> </div> What’s the best CSS I could use to horizontally center ‘someelement’ within its containing div?
if your
<someelement>is an inline element (i.e defaults to display: inline) apply text-align: center to its container. If<someelement>is a block element set left and right margin to auto and remember to set a width (block elements default to take all available horizontal space unless a width is stated explicitly). You may have to use both methods if you want it to work in IE 5.5 and below too.
