Code:
body
  {
  text-align: center; /* IE fix, see below */
  }
.hdr
  {
  border: 1px solid #000;
  height: 120px;
  width: 700px;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
  }
What you're looking for is margin auto. This will center a block element. However, IE doesn't understand this, so it may be necessary to text-align: center; the body. Note that this is not proper CSS b/c text-align: is not suppose to effect block elements, only text/inline elements.

There is another solution as well:
Code:
.hdr
  {
  position: relative;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -350px;
  }
