Center a table with CSS

The «align» attribute has been deprecated, however, in favor of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), and this is a good thing. However, it’s not so obvious how to center a table using CSS.

The obvious way might appear to use the CSS «text-align: center;» somewhere, maybe like one of these:

OR, if you get really desperate,

None of these will work. The table itself will be left-aligned, but all the content in the table cells will be centered.

Why? Because «text-align» applies to inline content, not to a block-level element like «table».

Method 1

To center a table, you need to set the margins, like this:

table.center { margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; }

At this point, Mozilla and Opera will center your table. Internet Explorer 5.5 and up, however, needs you to add this to your CSS as well:

Method 2

If you want your table to be a certain percentage width, you can do this:

table#table1 { width:70%; margin-left:15%; margin-right:15%; }

And then in your HTML/XHTML, you would do this:

Note that I was using an id to describe the table. You can only use an id once on a page. If you had many tables on a page that you wanted to be the same width and centered, you would do this in your CSS:

table.center { width:70%; margin-left:15%; margin-right:15%; }

Method 3

If you want your table to be of fixed width, define your CSS like this:

div.container { width:98%; margin:1%; } table#table1 { text-align:center; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; width:100px; } tr,td {text-align:left;}

Set «width:100px» to whatever width you need.

«text-align: center» is there for Internet Explorer, which won’t work without it. Unfortunately, «text-align: center» will center all the text inside your table cells, but we counter that by setting «tr» and «td» to align left.

In your HTML, you would then do this:

Once again, I’m using an id. If you need to center several tables the same way, use a class instead of an id.

How to center a table in HTML

A table is an excellent way to present a lot of information in an organized way. Sales data, web page traffic, stock market trends, and student’s grades are examples of information that are often presented in tables.

When adding a table to a web page using HTML, it may be more visually appealing to center it on the page. Centering text and pictures is usually done via the text-align class or through CSS, but centering a table requires a different approach. Details are provided below for how to center a table on a web page.

Centering a table in HTML

When adding a table to a web page, by default, it’s aligned to the left side of the page or container, as shown below.

To center this table, you would need to add ;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; to the end of the style attribute in the tag. The table tag would look like the following.

How to Center a Table with CSS (Quick Guide)

The use of tables in web design has an interesting history. Before the adoption of CSS, tables weren’t just used to display tabular data exercise lists in a conventional manner but were instead more commonly used to control complete page layouts.

Back then, HTML tables were used to define both the structure and the visual appearance of web pages, where the positioning of the table could be specified in HTML directly. For example, to set the alignment of a table to the center, one could simply write:

However, aligning your tables in this manner is no longer correct, and has been deprecated in HTML5. That’s because modern Web standards dictate the separation of structure (HTML) and style (CSS), and the above method violates that principle.

HTML should never be used to set the way an element appears; that’s now the job of CSS. So what’s the correct way to center a table in CSS? In this article by our team at wpDataTables, we tackle this question and show you a few tips on how to align your tables properly.

We know a thing or two about tables, considering we have created an awesome WordPress table plugin, so let’s dive in.

How can I use CSS to center a table?

CSS sets the look of the page, enabling you to control the appearance and positioning of every element, including the table element and all its sub-elements such as th, tr, and td.

First things first, let’s go over the ‘right’ way of centering a table with CSS. If your right and left margins are of equal value, modern browsers should show the table centered. An easy way to achieve this is having both margins set to auto.

An example of how to write this in CSS is below:

table   margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; >

.center1   margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; > .center2   text-align: center; > 

.centertbl   text-align: center; > .centertbl table   margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: left; >

table  margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; > 

table  width: 500px; margin: 0 auto; >

table  width: 50%; margin: 0 auto; /* same as margin: 0 25%; */ >
