    Default Trouble Centering a banner

    I have tried centering this banner using <center> but it didn't work it just verbosely posted all my banners down the screen. I found out you have to actually edit the CSS code to get it to work. Well I did that and it's centered for my computer/browsers but not for others. Is there a global way for me to center it with every browser on every computer? Could somebody fix my code plz!

    Code:

    maybe this could help:
    Code:
     div#rotator ul li {
    	position:absolute;
    	list-style: none;
    	margin-left:-350px;
    	left: 50%;
    	background-color: #000000;
    }
    this is a way of centering elements that are absolute positioned (in this case the width is 700px).
