The following example will center the website on screens that are wider than
500px.On screens that are less than 500px wide,
it will span the whole of the page:

<style>
.content {
  max-width: 500px;
  margin: auto;
}
</style>
<body>

<div class="content">
  <!-- Page content -->
</div>

</body>

Example 5: center a div

<div id="outer">
  <div id="inner">Foo foo</div>
</div>
//css:, demo with border
<style>
#inner {
  display: table;
  margin: 0 auto;
  border: 1px solid black;
}

#outer {
  border: 1px solid red;
  width:100%
}
</style>
