[wdvltalk] Re: FW: centering a page

[Amanda Birmingham]

J.R.,
When I downloaded your page & stylesheet to my machine and set it up with 
the auto-width margins centering, it seems to works fine (IE 6 on 
Win2k).  I did have to change the example's width and id specified for the 
main container element to match those of your page; all I did was replace 
the body and FullContainer formatting in your stylesheet with

body {
        margin:50px 0px; padding:0px;
        text-align:center;
        }
#FullContainer {
        width:700px;
        margin:0px auto;
        text-align:left;
        padding:15px;
        }
Let me know if you want me to send you a screenshot.  What browser are you 
testing on?

Thanks Amanda, but it didn't work. I tried both methods, and several
combinations and permutations thereof.
No dice.
Hopefully someone will be able to help.

Hi,
Horizontal centering can be done purely with CSS.  Check out
http://bluerobot.com/web/layouts/ and read the  "Related Info at BlueRobot"
snippet at the bottom of the page ... it has links to two methods.
