My problem is the following:

I've vertically centered a div. However, I'd like to center another div horizontally. The problem is that I don't manage to center it horizontally.

Here are my (X)HTML and CSS

(X)HTML:

<body>
<div id="strut"></div>
<div id="page">
    <div id="inner_page">
        <h1>Galidie "jQzz" Clément</h1>
    </div>
</div>

CSS:

html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
}

#strut, #page {
    display: inline-block;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

#strut {
    height: 100%;
}

#page {
    border: 1px solid #c00;
}

#inner_page {
    width: 750px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background-color: #c00;
}

h1 {
    text-align: center;
    margin: 0;
}

strut is the marker for vertically center an element. page is centered vertically. The idea is to try to center horizontally the inner_page block.

Should I use absolute position? Or anything else? Did I choose the good method?

Thank for your futur help.
