Warning

This {{

switch:Template

To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this {{

switch:Template

|Module=module |#default=template }} should first be tested in its [[{{

switch: Center

| doc | sandbox = Template:Center | #default = Template:Center }}/sandbox|/sandbox]] or [[{{

switch: Center

| doc | sandbox = Template:Center | #default = Template:Center }}/testcases|/testcases]] subpages{{

switch:Template

|Module=. |#default= or in your own user subpage. }} The tested changes can then be added to this page in a single edit. Please consider discussing any changes {{#if:|at [[{{{2}}}]]|on the [[{{

switch: Center

| doc | sandbox = Template talk:Center | #default = Template talk:Center

}}|talk page]]}} before implementing them.

A simple template to center-align content in tables and other places. Be aware that the center class is appllied to this template, which means every element within the template has its left and right margins set to auto. This may harm some templates.

Example

{{#if: ||+ {{{title}}}}} {{#if: |

Markup	Renders as }}{{#if: {{Center\|Hello world!}}
{{Center\|Hello world!}}	Hello world! {{#if:Hello world!\|\|}} }}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}{{#if: \|
	}}

To do this without a template, simply use the following code:

{{#switch:pair

 |c|close =
 |e|empty|s|single|v|void
 |o|open
 |p|pair = <div{{#if:class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;"| class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;"}}
}}{{#switch:pair
 |c|close = 
 |e|empty|s|single|v|void =  />
 |o|open = >
 |p|pair = {{#ifeq:div|!--||>}}...
}}{{#switch:pair
 |e|empty|s|single|v|void
 |o|open =
 |c|close
 |p|pair = {{#ifeq:div|!--|-->|</div>}}
}}
