>>Here is the issue I am working on. Obviously using Bootstrap 3 but I think the issue has more to do with the Selector's specificity than simply Bootstrap. But I can't seem to find the solution.

>>        <asp:Button runat="server" CssClass="btn btn-primary" ID="btnSubmit" Enabled="true" Text="Submit" onclick="btnButton_Click" />
>>    </div>

>>But the div "form-group" is NOT centered.
>>

You suggestion to use display: block style solved the problem. Thank you very much!
