HTML - How Do I Center A Table?
Hi all!
I used to use <div align="center"> (see below) and since I've started using XHTML 1.0 Transitional, align="center" has been depreciated. I have tried using css margin: 0 auto; and margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; and nothing is centering my table on a form. I have to use tables since its required on my project and there are more stuff inside the tables then my example below. But css for the div should work.. any thoughts, helps, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! s-one <!?xml-stylesheet href="http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/TR/W3C-REC.css" type="text/css"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> </head> <body> <div align="center"> <table><tr><td><img src="images/photo.png"></td></tr></table> </div> </body> </html> Similar TutorialsOn my page at http://www.sticksite.com/birds/ the large table with 44 thumbnail pictures, is no longer centered in Firefox, but it is centered in Internet Explorer.

I am trying to get this to work across the board with IE and FF and was hoping I could get some help that I might be over looking. Please bare with me on this as it is detailed. Ok, this is a page that outputs Christmas displays users submit. Here is a sample page. http://www.mesquitechristmas.com/loc...y.php?id=%2021 Yes this page is XHTML Valid before we even start. Only problem I have in FF is that the Google Map will not center, but in IE6,7 it does. I have a div class assigned to it just to center it. Now I can assign a div align="center" but that will not validate. Code: div.c1 {text-align: center} Other then that it renders and looks perfect in FF as usual because of it being a superior browser. Now in to my IE problems.... First, in both IE 6,7 if you look at the table that says "About this display..." you will notice a red line dividing each row. In FF this looks fine and works. But in IE if their is not content the line does not show in the entire row. What could be causing this? I would like this line to show regardless if there is content or not like it shows in FF. Lastly in IE6 only Below the "return to list" button their is a HUGE gap that does not show up in IE7 or FF. I have been trying to fix this for months and can not get it right. Any idea why this is happening? I am running out of time and could greatly use the help and suggestions. If you need me to post some code for these isolated problems I would be glad to. Otherwise you can just view source of the code to see it. -Thanks Code: <td class="row5" style="text-align:center;" width="50"> <b style="font-size:15px; color:#c9c5be; font-family:Georgia;">2</b> <span style="color:#c9c5be;">topics</span> <br /> <b style="font-size:15px; color:#c9c5be; font-family:Georgia;">1</b> <span style="color:#c9c5be;">posts</span><br /><br /> </td> I'm not sure how it's looking in IE, but in Firefox all the text in this table cell is aligned to the right. I can't figure out why. Row5 only adds a background color and nothing else. http://sa.zrkonium.net/ It's visible here ^ The grey topics/posts text is aligned to the right in Firefox rather than in the center where it should be. I can't figure out why it's not aligning right. Any help appreciated. Hi, I can't seem to figure out how to have a centered background image in a table in addition to its background color. Here's the site in question: http://deliciousintlbakery.com/test.htm I want to keep the red background in the table, but I also want an image centered behind the text (the address of the cafe).

I have a problem on my site using FF 2.0 and opera. When you open http://review4dummies.com/test/index.php you see it has horizontal alignment = center, but when you click on link About Us the site will move about 10 pixels to the right and of course its centered but... huh not exactly. When you browse and click on link Contact Us its back to normal. Clicking on report-a-bug does not move site too. I was checking whole code and noticed that if i add some paragraphs and blank tables to the about-us.php file everything seems to be ok. This is driving me nuts, any help will be apreciated. PS: in ie6 everyting seems to be ok. PS2: I also noticed this bug on some sites: eg. home.pl when you click on menulink "Praca" it will move horizontaly too. eg2. nazwa.pl when you click on menulink "KONTAKT" it will move too. Anybody? Best Regards!

I want to code to work in all browsers.. how can I do this? thanks Not a major programmer but I needed to make a website. I am having a problem with my website where I have 5 pages, same structure, built with tables, all tables centered. In IE the tables align center on each page. But in Firefox --- 3 of the pages are different, lining up about 10 pixels left of center. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem? I have browsed around other sites as well and many of them have this problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I know tables are horrible but thats all I know/can learn. Hi, I have the following problem i'm trying to solve with HTML: I have a simple table with 3 columns. I want the table to have a 100% width of the screen. Furthermore the center column must ALWAYS have a width of 1000. The left and right column should just be there too fill the gaps up if you have a wider screen than 1000. Setting these left/right columns to width "100%" doesn't work because than it would just make the left column fill up the space and the right column will have a width of 0. How can I solve this? Some example could would be highly appreciated Thanks, betonboor Hi, Yesterday, I wasted a couple hours trying to center the Paypal button inside a form inside a table. You can see it near the bottom of this page: http://www.jesussaidfollowme.org/new...t-theology.htm Do you know how to solve my puzzle? Thank you, Greg I have several div tags that I want exactly where I place them regardless of a user's screen size / resolution ... if I place them right of left 200 px then they shfit depending on resolution ... samve if I place them right of left by, say 85%. I'm figuring if I place the div tage left of center or right of center then they will always position correctly because the center doesn't vary according to resolution. How do I do this? I tried document.getElementById("divid").style.center = "25"; (i was attempting 25 pixels right of center) but it doesn't work. Any suggestions? Thanks! http://www.ivoog.com/test/help The boxes that have: Paypal, Policies, Financing, Wholesale, etc. How can these be centered in all browsers including IE6?
