Center a browse on a web page
« on: September 19, 2007, 02:16:58 AM »
Hallo,

How can I have a browse centered in a web page ?

I try:

<center><!-- Net:Browse_Candidates --></center>
or
<align="center"><!-- Net:Browse_Candidates -->

but didn't work ..... :(



Thank you,
Robert Iliuta

I found the solution:


<DIV align="center"><TABLE>

<!-- Net:Browse_Candidates -->

</DIV>
</TABLE>



this works for me. Maybe will be useful for someone. :)

The align attribute is deprecated in the current HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 specifications and hence it is recommend that you don't use this attribute. You should use CSS to do the formatting:

<table style="width: 50%; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">
</table>

Specifying the width of the table in either pixels or percentage is optional, and the table will expand if the contents are large than the size specified anyway.

For block elements you can use the text-align CSS attribute:
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>

Even better you could move these to the CSS file:

.center { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;}

and then in the code:

<table class="center">
</table>

<div class="center">
</div>

Hi Robert,

be aware that your closing tags are backwards - should be

<DIV align="center"><TABLE>

<!-- Net:Browse_Candidates -->

</TABLE>
</DIV>
