im aware that the fuction align in XHTML 1.0 is not valid,
and im wondering now else i can move the whole div, not just the text
and also know that a margin of 50% wont work in IE

i need the whole div to be centered...?

.div {
width:/*set a width(you need one)*/
height:..;
margin:0 auto;
border:..;
}

That is a basic way of styling one. the code

margin:0 auto;

is what centers the div.

if you would like, the width is really the important part.

div#nav a:link{

} Or simply
#nav a:link{

}

abduraooft is right, just call it through another selector so its different from the standard link.
