== Description ==<br />
It is to center elements on a page. See also [[Template:Align]] for more options and flexibility.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
{{See also|Span and div}}<br />
{{markup<br />
| <nowiki>{{Center|Hello world!}}</nowiki><br />
| {{Center|Hello world!}}<br />
}}<br />
<br />
To do this without a template, simply use the following code:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="HTML"><br />
<div class="center">...</div><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
To center a table, see [[Help:TABLECENTER]].<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
* If the markup to be centered includes an equals sign, the markup must be preceded by <code>1=</code>. Example: <code><nowiki>{{Center|1=the <span style="color:red">red</span> one}}</nowiki></code>.<br />
* If the markup to be centered includes a displaying pipe, the pipe must be escaped as <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code> or <code>&amp;#124;</code>.<br />
<br />
