How can i horizontally center a div?

Hello,

How can I horizontally center a <div> within another <div> using CSS?

<div id="outer">
  <div id="inner">Hello World!</div>
</div>

You can apply this CSS to the inner <div>:

Of course, you don't have to set the width to 50%. Any width less than the containing <div> will work. The margin: 0 auto is what does the actual centering.

If you are targeting IE8+, it might be better to have this instead:

It will make the inner element center horizontally, and it works without setting a specific width.
