I.E problems (again) for centering div

[squiblo]

the code below works in all browers for positioning the div in the middle of the page apart from I.E because they are GAY and think they are special.

Any ideas on how to get this to work, thanks.

 

.black_back {
width: 510px;
height: 510px;
position:fixed;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
margin: auto;
background-color:black;
border:1px solid black;
/* for IE */
filter:alpha(opacity=30);
/* CSS3 standard */
opacity:0.3;
z-index: 2;
}

 

<div class='black_back'> TEXT </div>

Try this:

 

.black_back
{
width: 510px;
height: 510px;
position:fixed;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
margin-left:-255px;
margin-top:-255px;
background-color:black;
border:1px solid black;
/* for IE */
filter:alpha(opacity=30);
/* CSS3 standard */
opacity:0.3;
z-index: 2;
}
