CSS - Gridview Won't Center On Page
I'm trying to center a gridview on a page. Pretty straightforward. I just don't understand why this gridview will not center on the page. I have no other css. They instructions are left aligned fine.
This is the code I have for the css. Code: #mid { text-align:center; } p.instr { text-align:left; color:Silver; } <div id="maincontainer"> <div id="mid"> <p class="instr">bunch of instructions</p> <asp:Panel ID="pnlMainMenu" runat="server"> <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" Runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"> </asp:GridView> </asp:Panel> </div> </div> Similar TutorialsHi, I have a front page which is one image only, no text. The image is centered horizontally (i.e. a simply text-align: center; ). My question is - how do I centre it vertically? (no matter what the resolution of the website visitor is). i.e. Currently the image is at the top of my screen. I would like it to be in the centre, both horizontally and vertically. Many thanks! I have a single column layout with a fixed width (say, 700 px), centered in the window, composed of header, body, and footer divs in a wrapper div. I would like background images, left and right of the center column (two images, because they sort of fade up to the edge of the centerd div). How is this done? I have a div sitting on a html page that will be included in the main page. I include this page into a table and I would like the div to be centered horizontally inside the table cell. It isn't working for me at the moment. Am I doing something wrong? Here is what I have so far: Code: #mybox{ border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; border-color: #000000; padding: 5px; width: 400px; left-margin:auto; right-margin:auto; } Brad. I am trying to center this entire page, and it does show up centered in IE; however, after checking with BrowserShots.org, in all browsers other than IE, the header image is centered, but the rest is aligned on the left side....??!! Here is the page: http://www.georgiaspinal.com/indexTESTBR2.html Here is the CSS file I am using: Code: body {margin:25px; font:12px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica; } * {padding:0; margin:0} #wrapper { text-align: center; width: 770px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } .hidden { display: none; } .unhidden { display: block; } <div id="article" class="hidden"> Thanks for any help here!!! Is there a way to center the entire page using CSS? Reidy Fixed the problem myself. I added a strict doctype, and it fixed itself. Previous Issue: ------------------ I wrote out all the code to my website. However, everything is aligned to the left (default). In an attempt to center everything, I simply stuck everything into a <div> tag, and said this: Code: <div style="width:630px; margin: 4px auto;"> //My entire website </div> This solution works both with FF and Chrome, but not with IE. Any ideas? Okay, because of a conflict with Sothink Menu Builder I cannot use the container or wrapper tag the way I normally would on my CSS. Instead, I've done this: Code: * { margin:0; padding:0; } body { margin: 0 auto; width: 1000px; text-align: center; background-color: #e0d7e6; height: 100%; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #000; letter-spacing: normal; vertical-align: top; word-spacing: normal; white-space: normal; line-height: normal; padding: 0px; background-image: url(../images/shared/gifs/bacgrnd.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; } #wrapper { text-align: left; position: relative; z-index: 0; } And the HTML: Code: </head> <body><div id="wrapper"> webpage content </div></body> And it works well, except the page is off center (to the right) by a couple of pixels. It's in all browsers. Does anyone have a fix? Thanks in advance. Hello; i am trying to put a content of my page sit in the center of the my page it doesn't matter what browser is. but i just can do it for firefox, netscap and Opera browser, but i could not do it for IE browser.

Distracted by games of Reversi, Freecell and Solitaire on his computer, he took quite a while but then he heard that some Australian bloke named Wallace had come up with a similar idea so he got a move on to prevent his thunder being stolen. In 1858 Darwin and Wallance presented a joint paper to the Linnean Society of London that sent rumbles across the establishment and really quite upset a lot of people. The next year saw the publication of Darwin's 500-page 'abstract' - 'On The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races In The Struggle For Life' (or OTOOSBMONSOTPOFRITSFL for short). </div> </body> </html> I have ads on the side of my website that when clicked open a div with a larger ad.

I have multiple ul lists and I'm trying to float each list left and center on the screen all of them using css. I'm not trying to have an inline list. I'm trying to keep the three list, float left but center on the page. floating works but I'm having problems centering on the page. I have used margin-left and right:auto but because I'm using float left if stays on the left. Does anyone have any solutions. thank-you in advance Every time I switch Web pages, the display starts at the far left and jumps to center. Is there a way to correct this and still allow for variations in screen sizes and resolution. http://www.madjazz.org/index.html http://www.madjazz.org/CSS/RobustLayout.css Thank you how do i center align table on page with CSS? I've made a site for someone and it was center aligning and it worked in all 3 main browsers (IE, FF and Opera) so when I was tinkering with ideas for redoing the look of my site, I used the CSS sheet I used for his site as a base for mine. Unfortunately it's only center align in IE7 with my site. My site is admittedly a bit more complex, at the moment, with more divs, it should still work. Mind you I'm probably just too tired to spot the obvious. Can anyone see what's stopping it from center aligning in FF and Opera? The template: http://www.toadwarrior.com/temp/index.php The CSS: http://www.toadwarrior.com/temp/mark_h_walker_journalist.css Thank you in advance. I have stripped the whole page down to the bare bones and can not seem to get the center DIV to be the same height as the rest of the page. Is there a simple fix for this or would I need to redo it completely ? The left and right content is not always the same so their height is also variable. I have a min-height in the center DIV, and using height 100% does not seem to work either. Can anyone suggest what I could change to make it the same or suggest how I redo this so it is.
