Center Table in Div. To center a table inside a div, you must either add the attribute align="center" to your table, or add margin auto via CSS as tables already have the width attribute set to auto by default. If you will add 100% width, automatically your table will be wider as his container.
To allow text to flow around the table, use ALIGN=LEFT to position the table at the left margin, with text flowing around its right handside, or use ALIGN=RIGHT to position the table at the right margin, with text flowing around its left handside.
To center text in CSS, use the text-align property and define it with the value “center.” Let's start with an easy example. Say you have a text-only web page and want to center all the text.
