centering the entire layout

**Sparkie** · Mar 16, 2003, 05:45

What would I need to make this entire layout centered so that it expands to fit either 800x600 resolution, and 1024x768? I know there is a way to do it..but I can't seem to recall the CSS code for it.

Thanks in advance

put this in your CSS:

Code:

body {
   margin-left: auto;
   margin-right: auto;
}

This will work after you specify a proper DOCTYPE declaration above your <html> tag on each page.

Ooooh! that worked wonderfully! Thanks Vinnie!

But now my form fields don't have the CSS backgrounds that they used to..How do I get those back?

Oops. Well, I thought it worked wonderfully..but when I resize to 1024x768 resolution, it still has a big gap on the right.
