CSS - Centering In Ie7
Hey. I'm having issues with getting my page to center in IE7 using
margin: auto; It works fine in firefox. The page is at http://jbench.co.uk:81/. The CSS is at http://jbench.co.uk:81/css/css.php . The section where i think the problem is: CSS Code: Original - CSS Code #page { width: 900px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 14px 3px; min-height: 250px; font-size: 1.2em; } #page { Any help's appreciated. Similar TutorialsHello, I have tried to use the auto margin to center a div within a div, but the auto margin only seems to work on the outermost div. Is there a workaround where I can center my content inside of a nested div? Take the example code: Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> body { background-color: orange; } #container { width: 700px; margin: 0 auto; background-color: red; } #nested { width: 700px; margin: 0 auto; background-color: blue; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="nested"> Text Here </div> </div> </body> </html> So I want the nested div to have its content centered, so "Text Here" is in the center. http://www.stevemedleyphotography.com/tempo/index.html What I am trying to do is make it so that the blue background is as it is already but the orange box is the full width of the window despite what resolution or window size the user has, and also is centered on the screen. -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- -----ORANGE------- -----ORANGE------- -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- -------BLUE--------- Like that. I will be having some stuff within the orange div. I don't really know much CSS at all and am kinda guessing my way through it... poorly... Thanks for any help. Hi, I'm trying to design a web page and I want to center all the content (including the background), and have another background behind all of that. I can't figure out how to center everything. When I put a <div> around all the content and center it in CSS, only certain elements(some graphical buttons) get centered while all of the text stays lined up to the left. Any ideas? I'm sure I'm making a really silly mistake. Hey everyone, I am fairly comfortable with HTML, and even know a decent amount of PHP and Javascript. But sometimes trying to do the simplest things in CSS makes my head spin! (this is one of those times). I've got a "scrolling" header at the top of a page (stays visible even when scrolling), and am trying to center a DIV (which contains opt-in forms) inside that header. It looks good when my browser window is maximized (at 1280x1024 resolution). But when I minimize the browser or check it in other screen resolutions, the "centering" of the opt-in forms are off. Here is the page... www.wordflood.com/Test/Scrolling_Header.html And here are the CSS includes... www.wordflood.com/Test/style.css www.wordflood.com/Test/IE6_style.css This was really just a quick hack from a "scrolling header" demo I found online, so I must have overlooked something. Any ideas? Now while I did manage to work this out with margins and paddings, I have to ask how to do it properly. It's very basic. You have blank page. No wrappers no nothing. Then 1 div, holds, 1 ul, with 20 li. The div has specified width. How to center the ul inside the div? I need the UL to NOT have specified width since I'll be adding more items to it over time. Thanks! How can I, let's see how to say this. Align text to the middle of a div (up and down)... not really a center Normal: ________________________________ Text ________________________________ After: ________________________________ text ________________________________ THANKS im trying to center this div but im not to sure on how to do it Code: <style type="text/css"> div.img { margin:2px; border:1px solid #0000ff; height:auto; width:auto; float:left; text-align:center; } div.img img { display:inline; margin:3px; border:1px solid #ffffff; } div.img a:hover img { border:1px solid #0000ff; } div.desc { text-align:center; font-weight:normal; width:120px; margin:2px; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="img"> <a target="_blank" href="klematis_big.htm"> <img src="klematis_small.jpg" alt="Klematis" width="110" height="90" /> </a> <div class="desc">Add a description of the image here</div> </div> <div class="img"> <a target="_blank" href="klematis2_big.htm"> <img src="klematis2_small.jpg" alt="Klematis" width="110" height="90" /> </a> <div class="desc">Add a description of the image here</div> </div> <div class="img"> <a target="_blank" href="klematis3_big.htm"> <img src="klematis3_small.jpg" alt="Klematis" width="110" height="90" /> </a> <div class="desc">Add a description of the image here</div> </div> <div class="img"> <a target="_blank" href="klematis4_big.htm"> <img src="klematis4_small.jpg" alt="Klematis" width="110" height="90" /> </a> <div class="desc">Add a description of the image here</div> </div> Hi, This is my first css only layout and I am trying to centre the navigation.

Hey guys, I'm having trouble centering div boxes on my page, wondering if anyone can help. I have tried using {margin: 0 auto;} which works fine, but when the scrollbar appears on the page it knocks it off balance and the other content on the page becomes mis-aligned. I have also tried setting left margins to push the div to the middle, but I figured this would cause problems and wouldn't look right to people using higher than 1024x768 resolutions. Is there any other way? Hi, i am new to CSS and want to know about how to center a div tag for example i have the following code Code: <div style=""> </div> if i want to place this div in the middle of the browser window that is from equal distance from left right top bottom what will i have to put inside the style attributes. Please recommend Regards ltoso I was wondering how I could center a CSS div so I would have one column going thorugh the middle. I tryed using "center" in the CSS but that didn't work and then I read some where else about floats and how they will make every go to either the left or right. How would I go about centering a Div like that? Thankyou for any help. This list is a navigation bar that displays tabs horizontally. I can't seem to figure out what properties I need to use to center it correctly. I have 2 problems: 1. How can I get these list items centered? 2. the second level seems to have problems displaying horizontally in IE. How can I fix it? Code: <div id="tablenavcontainer"> <div id="navcontainer"> <ul> <li><a href="/doctors/enroll/" rel="self" class="" id="purple" name="patientenroll">Enroll Patient</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/" rel="self" class="" id="current" name="doctorspatients">My Patients</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/lab/" rel="self" class="" id="green" name="doctorlab">Lab</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/pharmacy" rel="self" class="" id="yellow" name="doctorpharmacy">Pharmacy</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/tools/" rel="self" class="" id="red" name="doctortools">My Office Tools</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/home/" rel="self" class="" id="graphite" name="doctorhome">Home</a></li> <ul> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/currentchart.html" rel="self" id="currentchart" name="currentchart" >Current Chart</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/labhistory.html" rel="self" id="labhistory" name="labhistory" >Lab History</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/symptomhistory.html" rel="self" id="symptoms" name="symptoms" >Symptom History</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/prescriptionhistory.html" rel="self" id="prescriptions" name="prescriptions" >Prescription History</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/patients/reports.html" rel="self" id="reports" name="reports" >Restore Reports</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/lab/ordertesting.html" rel="self" id="ordertest" name="ordertest" >Order Testing</a></li> <li><a href="/doctors/pharmacy/prescribe.html" rel="self" id="orderrx" name="orderrx" >Prescribe</a></li> <li><a href="/logout.html" rel="self" id="" name="" >Log Out</a></li> </ul> </ul> <br style="clear: both;" /> </div> </div> Hi there, I am trying to center a div within a div. The container div needs to stretch 100% width. It works in FF, but not IE. Any ideas? This is my code: PHP Code: #top_bar{ background-image: url('img/top_bar.jpg'); height: 54px; font-family: arial; font-size: 14px; color: #ffffff; width: 100%; } #top_bar_content{ padding: 18px 0 10px 0px; width: 870px; margin: 0 auto; position: relative; } Alright, I know that there was a thread about this HERE but I went to the suggested tutorials and I am still having issues. I am new to CSS and I am basically learning from experience, so forgive me if I butchered the code. Here is what I have for my container and my body: Code: #container { background-color:#0e0c0b; background-image: url(images/striped2.gif); overflow: auto; width: 950px; min-width: 900px margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: left; border-left:1px solid #0B0B0B; border-right:1px solid #0B0B0B; } body { text-align: center; background-color:#000000; margin: 0px; min-width: 950px; } It still won't center and I am at my wits end! please please please help me T^T How can I get the text to display in the middle of these boxes (vertically)? I would think vertical-align: middle would do it, but it doesn't work. Thanks in advance for any help! LauraS.
