ummm... "nice share" u arent even reading wot ppl write sirat. i have my whole site centered just with center tags. but, everything else is in table inside tables inside tables so it doesnt affect them. but, if u want to center your site like that, u could use margins? the same on both side.

just use css to set the left and right margin to auto, and you'll be able to center your div (assuming you also have a width set for the div). An example would be: CODE <div id="content" style="width: 745px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">the content here</div> So if centering your site, you would put your website inside of that. Hope this helps, if it doesn't I would recommend posting a link to either your website, or an example of an attempt at what you are doing, so we can take a look at the code, and provide more specific help.

MediYama If you want to center horizontally your div or any other block element you can use achieve this with: CODE <div style="width:10em;margin:0 auto">div content</div> Best regards,

auto margins will work fine in other resolutions....it is when you have margins set so that they are not auto or not percentage values that you run into problems.

Someone posted about the tag <center>. This tag is depricated and is no longer a valid HTML tag (as stated by the W3C - World Wide Web Consortium). So, yes use what TavoxPeru said. Just thought I would let you know!

Good suggestions from all. Here's another method I personally use with a negative margin. (I like the math!  ) Works in IE6/7, FF, & Opera CODE #name {
position: absolute; left: 50%;
width: 600px;
margin: 0 0 0 -300px;
} You can use position: relative; if you are centering to a parent element, rather than the browser's window.

QUOTE(Habble @ Jul 20 2007, 12:47 AM) Another way to center the div, is by placing it in <center> tags, and adding the following CSS:
text-align: left; That's correct but the center tag is deprecated and must be avoided, instead to get the similar result you use margin:0 auto as posted in previous posts. Best regards,
