A combination of display:table (Mozilla, Opera) and display:inline-block (IE) can cause a wrapper around floats to shrink-to-fit and thus be made amenable to being centered.
However, Safari (neither 2 nor 3) does not do the shrink wrapping and so no centering occurs. As far as I know - I'd love to be told that I'm wrong. Paul O'Brien has an alternative approach that can be summed up as: Outer wrapper: float: left; position: relative and left: 50% Inner wrapper position: relative; left: -50% http://www.search-this.com/2007/09/19/when-is-a-float-not-a-float/ It is not without drawbacks, but it may be good enough for your needs ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
