You've already received one reply which suggests inlining your links. That method will work, but will cause only the actual link text to be clickable. To do this with block links, so the entire width and height of each link can be clicked, you can float your links and list items. Set the UL width to the sum of the combined LI widths (accounting for margins, padding and borders, as necessary), and then set the left and right margins on the UL to auto. Depending on how you set the units on everything, you may not be able to center *exactly* using this method, but with judicious tweaking you can get close enough so nobody will know the difference. (If you need to support IE/Win 5.5 and older, you need to set text-align: center; on the parent element of your list in order to get the proper centering. Don't forget the reset the text-align value for child elements that need a different value.)
