to group them together.

CSS How to center link elements within a div
Have you tried text-align: center;? I'm pretty sure it works on elements as well.
Centering a link in a div
The issue is that ul has its own ideas about aligning elements. See this thread on centering ul withing div.
To get rid of the default padding and margin of the ul tag, try:
#menu {
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
Then, if you would like to display the links next to each other horizontally, you have to alter the default behaviour of the li tags, for example as following:
.menuItem {
display: inline-block;
}
CSS center content inside div
To center a div, set it's width to some value and add margin: auto.
#partners .wrap {
width: 655px;
margin: auto;
}
EDIT, you want to center the div contents, not the div itself. You need to change display property of h2
, ul
and li
to inline
, and remove the float: left
.
#partners li, ul, h2 {
display: inline;
float: none;
}
Then, they will be layed out like normal text elements, and aligned according to text-align property of their container, which is what you want.
How can I align a link to the center in html and css?
you need to add "text-align: center" to any parent tag in which the anchor tag is in.
if you have your anchor tags inside a div then add it to the div not the anchor tag.
example:
css:
div{
text-align: center;
}
html:
<body>
<div>
<a href="#">this is a link</a>
</div>
</body>
How can I center a div within another div?
You need to set the width
of the container (auto
won't work):
#container {
width: 640px; /* Can be in percentage also. */
height: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 10px;
position: relative;
}
The CSS reference by MDN explains it all.

How to center links inside container in separate divs
If you want your text to be centered, be sure to use the classes for aligning the text
To clarify a bit:
If you need to center blocks within a container, you need to use justify-content: center
on the container. Since this only works in combinatino with display: flex
I also added d-flex
class to column since a column isn't a flex-element by default in bootstrap.
A row already has display: flex
so there is no need to set the d-flex
class to it.
If you want to center text inside a block, you can do this via text-align: center
img {max-width: 200px}

How can I center an anchor link?
#d1 { width:whatever; margin:0 auto; }
If you don't want to specify a width, you need to use an alternate technique.
