Change your last two CSS rules to:

li {
    display:inline-block;
}
#menu {
    background-color:#98bf21;
    text-align:center;
}

Use the inline-block css magic :)

margin: 0 auto; only works on items that have defined widths. However, the way you currently have it written, each a tag is attempting to center, when you really want to center the ul. Here is a great way to center that when you don't know the width of your ul. Use these styles in your header, ul and li elements. Add styling to your a tags to suit.

header {
    float: left;
    width: 100%;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative;
}
ul {
    float: left;
    list-style: none;
    position: relative;
    left: 50%;
}
li {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    position: relative;
    right: 50%;
}

What's going on here is we're setting the header to full width, and then pushing the ul half way across the width of the browser. Then we push the li's back half the width of the ul, which now centers them on the page.

Here is a link with a very helpful tutorial about doing this very thing: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/beautiful-css-centered-menus-no-hacks-full-cross-browser-support

Good luck!

I had the same problem until I read this post and decided to center the text in the "nav".

So basically your ul should be in a nav so you can text-align: center the nav area.

      nav {
        width: 75%;
        margin: auto
      }

      #menu {background-color: #98bf21}

      .container{padding: 0.10em}

      .cell-row {display:table; width:100%}
      .cell {display: table-cell}
      .cell-middle {vertical-align: middle}

      a:link, a:visited {
        font-weight: bold;
        color: black;
        text-align: center;
        padding: 4px;
        text-decoration: none;
        text-transform: uppercase;
      }

      a:hover, a:active {background-color: #7A991A}

      @media (max-width: 500px) {
        .mobile {
          display: block; 
          width: 100%; 
          text-align: center
        }
							
        nav {
          width: 100%;
          margin: auto
        }  
      }

    <nav>
      <div id="menu" class="cell-row" style="text-align: center">
        <div class="container cell cell-middle mobile"><a href="Home.aspx">Home</a></div>
        <div class="container cell cell-middle mobile"><a href="News.aspx">News</a></div>
        <div class="container cell cell-middle mobile"><a href="Articles.aspx">Articles</a></div>
        <div class="container cell cell-middle mobile"><a href="Forum.aspx">Forum</a></div>
        <div class="container cell cell-middle mobile"><a href="Contact.aspx">Contact</a></div>
        <div class="container cell cell-middle mobile"><a href="About.aspx">About</a></div>
      </div>
    </nav>

Add the following css:

ul {
    margin: 0 auto;
    display: inline-block;
}

This will make the ul fit its contents and then be centered in its container.
