centering navigation bar

centering navigation bar

hello,
I have a javascript navigation bar I am trying to center in a <div>. Because I don't want to fix a width to the div, I am using percentages which -from what I read- makes it impossible to use CSS to center the bar. I have tried all the methods mentioned in CSS forums to find out for myself.
It has been a while (a few years) since I did any web developing, my Dreamweaver is out of date (and I am out of touch) with HTML 5 and CSS3. Prior to that, the software I used to create the menu had a plug-in for DW and it centered it automatically. Now, I need to do it manually and can only believe that it is a function of javascript.
To keep it simple, here is my example:

HTML-
<div class="navbar">
<script type="text/javascript" src="navbars/navTop/biztech.js"></script>
</div>

CSS-
.navbar{
display:block;
margin:0 auto;
width:100%;
}

I tried using "ul {display:inline-block;}", but that didn't work, either.

Any help is appreciated.

I still believe it is within CSS scope, since centering is a page-layout thing. May we see an URL/ link to the page where your navigation-bar resides?

margin 0 auto will work if the element has a set width, not a percentage.
