# --description--
Another positioning technique is to center a block element horizontally. One way to do this is to set its `margin` to a value of auto.
This method works for images, too. Images are inline elements by default, but can be changed to block elements when you set the `display` property to `block`.
# --instructions--
Center the `div` on the page by adding a `margin` property with a value of `auto`.
# --hints--
The `div` should have a `margin` set to `auto`.
```js
assert(code.match(/margin:\s*?auto;/g));
```
