well i use margin-left:auto and margin-right:auto and that perfectly centers the entire site.

so lets say you have a site 800px wide and you want it centered well you'd set up your container like this via CSS:

Code:

#container{
     width:800px; 
     margin-left:auto;
     margin-right:auto;
     }

and then your html would just be:

HTML Code:

...
<body>
<div id="container"> THE REST OF THE SITE HERE </div>
</body>
...
