monkeytooth Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 html, body { background-color:#3F3965; height: 100%; min-height: 100%; max-height: 100%; margin:0; padding:0; font-family:Verdana; font-size:12pt; color:#000000; } #main_C { width:100%; height:100%; background-color:#009999; margin: 0 auto; text-align: center; } #main_D { width: 800px; margin:0; background-color:#336666; padding:0; text-align: center; } main_D wont center within main_C I've used a similar technice before, so I don't understand why its not working for me this time. I am trying to get main_D to center within _C so I can have a centered layout.. while having it stretch to the bottom.. But I don't see what I am doing wrong to not have it center, _D sits to the left, and wont budge... any suggestions?

Axeia Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Going by what you typed I think you applied the margin: 0 auto; on the wrong one? Should be on _D instead of _C Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/160337-solved-issue-with-centering-divs/#findComment-846121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
