To do this without a template, simply use the following code:
<div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">...</div>
To center a table, see Help:TABLECENTER.
Notes:

1=. Example:{{Center|1=the <span style="color:red">red</span> one}}. - If the markup to be centered includes a displaying pipe, the pipe must be escaped as
{{!}}or|.
