Yes, text-align:center will do the trick for old IE, but from the
looks of it you've added text-align:center; to the element you want
centered, not its parent element.

In your code, you would need to add the text-align center rule to the
body rule set.

Thanks for replying so quickly,

Re: Ben - Im not really all that concerned about getting it absolutely
100% correct across all older IE versions but would be good to know for
future (just in case).
Re: Andrew - It was my understanding that older versions of IE had
problems with the 'margin' attribute (as you say) but that's why it
should be accompanied by the 'text-align: center' attribute?
