<div class="parent">
  <div class="child">
    <p>
      Eh Up Me Duck!
    </p>
  </div>
</div>

<style>
.parent {
  /* Just for aesthetics: see fiddle */
  border: 1px solid black;
  padding: 2px;
}

.child {
  border: 1px solid red;
  width: 50%;
  
  /* This is where the magic happens */
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;

Example 5: 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>
