Hello Janet,
There are two ways to center the content: the CSS way, and the IE way.
To easily center a block with CSS, all you would need to do is give
the block "auto" left and right margins. However, to center in IE,
you'd need to use "text-align: center" for the containing block, and
then "text-align: left" for the centered block.
div.center {
text-align: center;
}
div.content {
width: 70%;
margin: auto;
text-align: left;
}
<div class="center">
<div class="content">
This block is centered on the page
</div>
</div>
