FLOAT, left and right. How would I float to centre (SOLVED)

I have a couple of items that I am floating left and right, but I also want to put some items in between them. I take it there is no float centre, so how would I do this, use fixed or relative position or some other technique.
I just had a quick look at the wsc3 css guide and can't see how I would use any of the positioning tags, unless it is possible for me to set it as a percentage, ie: fixed 50%, not sure.
Thank you.

You can float:both but i'm not sure it that is solution to your problem as I'm not sure what you trying to achieve.

Hey KO,
How do you use float:both?
I thought only left,right,none or inherit were valid options.

Sorry. No float:both. display:inline floats both and does bit more.
If you have items inside div text-align:center for that also works if those items are display:inline.

thanks guys, problem solved. Learning so much stuff here it is nice to see something I actually already knew, even if I didn't realise it at first. Cheers.
