align div elements to center code example

Example 1: how to center a div element

/*ADD MARGIN auto to left and right*/
.box1{
    width:80%;
    margin:0 auto;
}

Example 2: how to center div

<!DOCTYPE html>
<!--clearfix-->
<html>
<head>
<style>
div {
  border: 3px solid #4CAF50;
  padding: 5px;
}

.img1 {
  float: right;
}

.clearfix {
  overflow: auto;
}

.img2 {
  float: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<p>In this example, the image is taller than the element containing it, and it is floated, so it overflows outside of its container:</p>

<div>
  <img class="img1" src="pineapple.jpg" alt="Pineapple" width="170" height="170">
  Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus imperdiet, nulla et dictum interdum...
</div>

<p style="clear:right">Add a clearfix class with overflow: auto; to the containing element, to fix this problem:</p>

<div class="clearfix">
  <img class="img2" src="pineapple.jpg" alt="Pineapple" width="170" height="170">
  Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus imperdiet, nulla et dictum interdum...
</div>

</body>
</html>
