Place my image in the center of the ul list item within a div

I am having trouble centering an image in my footer. I have tried various solutions but none seem to work. Can someone please take a look at my code and help me out?

HTML

<div class="center">
    <ul>
        <li><a href="#" target="_blank" class="centering_"></a></li>
    </ul>
</div>

CSS:

.center 
{
    width: 84px;    
    margin: 0 auto;
}
.center ul 
{
    width: 209px;
    line-height: normal;  
}
.center ul li 
{
    float: left;
    margin-right: 11px;
}
.center ul li.last 
{
    margin-right: 0px;
}
.center ul li a
{   
    display: block;
    height: 33px;
    width: 33px;
}

.centering_ {background: transparent url('../images/hello.png') no-repeat;}

EDIT: Here is a example in jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/XJbaM/

I have two icons in my footer and I am looking to remove the right one and center the left one. The text above the icons is already centered.

Answer №1

To implement a wrapper div, follow these steps:

<div>
  <ul>
      <li>
          <div class="wrapper">
              <a href="img"></a>
          </div>
      </li>
  </ul>

Include the following CSS for the wrapper:

.wrapper {
       margin:0 auto;
       width: /* specify the size of your image in PX EM % etc */;
       text-align:center;
}

I have tested this code in my browser and it works perfectly. Here is the complete code snippet that I used, combining elements from both your original code and mine:

    <!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style>
.center 
{
    width: 784px;    
    margin: 0 auto;
    border: 1px solid #000;
}
.center ul 
{
    width: 709px;
    line-height: normal;  

}
.center ul li 
{
    float: left;
    margin-right: 11px;
    border: 1px solid #000;
    width:500px;

}
.wrapper {
    margin:0 auto;
    width:500px;
    text-align:center;
}
.center ul li.last 
{
    margin-right: 0px;
}
.center ul li a
{   
    display:inline-block;
    height: 33px;
    width:100px;
}
.clear {
    clear:left;
}

.centering_ {background-image:url(img/activenav.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;}
</style>
</head>

<body>
<div class="center">
                <ul>
                    <li><div class="wrapper"><a href="#" target="_blank" class="centering_"></a></div></li>

                </ul>
            <div class="clear">ss</div>
            </div>  
</body>
</html>

The implementation is successful! Enjoy your newfound design enhancement.

Answer №2

To center the div, wrap it with the tags <CENTER> and </CENTER>.

<CENTER>
<div class="center">
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="#" target="_blank" class="centering_"></a></li>

                </ul>
            </div>  
</CENTER>
