Stickybomb Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 no do not use lightbox this is easy to accomplish with css just set your margin to auto in all cases using css example <div style="margin:auto auto;"></div> this should accomplish what you are looking for. Also kind of off subject but lightbox is a horibble way to accomplish what it does, since it uses prototypes that contain way to much code then you need. Anyways hope this helped Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39903-div-exactly-in-the-centre-of-the-screen/#findComment-200206 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways hope this helped This in theory works; however, since top and bottom auto margins do not display properly in any modern browsers yet, you'll have to come up with something different. Read up on the W3 Vertical Centering page for the methods of centering things that are available. Hopefully, with CSS3, there will be additional options.
