crmamx Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I always wondered when I'd run into someone from this shithole. Yeah, I used to work at Rib Country in '05. .. regardless of it being cool to run into someone so close... within 7 years of phpfreak-ship, this has nothing to do with centering a DIV. I humbly beg your pardon! There is a ton of stuff in this forum that has nothing to do with the topic including a lot by admins, mods and gurus. If I had a gleaming I was breaking protocol you can be sure I would have never posted such. But you can be sure I will never address you again.

Although I know there are many threads that do go off-topic, I try not to advocate it. If it makes you feel any better, I'm on here now replying off-topic. If I offended you, then I apologize, but I wasn't trying to be an ass. I honestly think it's awesome that someone from Murphy is on here.

ryanfilard Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Try this: body { text-align: center; } Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237866-centering-page-with-css/page/2/#findComment-1226190 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cssfreakie Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Try this: body { text-align: center; } That is certainly not the way for anything other than IE 5 or lower Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237866-centering-page-with-css/page/2/#findComment-1226192 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbbyShotDev Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Did that and the background images goes off the left margin entirely with: html, body { margin:0 auto; padding:0; width:100%; height:100%; text-align: center; } makes this happen: Should I even have html and body together like that? my style sheet is accessable , you guys can see it, I am yet to try cssfreakies fixes, I will let you know how that goes, but thats what happened when i tried that Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237866-centering-page-with-css/page/2/#findComment-1226399 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbbyShotDev Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 as far as i can see, your page is centered. So that seems the problem is solved. just checked in ie789 and firefox 4. to center a block. give it a width and use margin:0 auto; on it. although i must say, your mark-up is pretty over complicated. In other words this could be done much easier. First of all, don't use tables for layout purposes, it's chaotic and redundant. Second, if you would just take a div as wrapper (as a container around all your content and a width of for instance 960px; than use margin:0 auto on it you #wrapper{width:960px; margin:0 auto;} in html ... <body> <div id="wrapper"> your content inside here. </div> </body> ... When i do this it just messes up my background image.. I dont think my backgroudn placement is right either, can you look at my code? the source? and www.abbyshot.com/styles.css Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/237866-centering-page-with-css/page/2/#findComment-1226410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cssfreakie Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 you either pay no attention at all to what is said above or you just missed something which worked. Which i doubt, because you said you were to test it about a week ago... So to rephrase that, the code below works, apply it in your stylesheet where you define the properties for #scroller. #scroller{ height: 100%; margin-left: auto; /* changed */ margin-right: auto; /* changed */ overflow: visible; position: relative; /* changed */ text-align: left; width: 1000px; /* changed */ z-index: 1; } this works! just like a week ago... P.s. so run through your stylesheet ones you reached the point where #scroller is defined, replace that with the above.
