centering web page

[beachfires]

Hi,
I am trying to center a web page when viewed on a wide screen.
This is hard for me to check as i do not have a wide screen yet.
I'm building the web pages with HTML and CSS.
Any help would be much appreciated....

Thank you :>

You can put your entire site in div tags and using css set:

*a width
*margin-left to auto
*margin-right to auto

That will center the page

Yeah if you put your entire site in a div with an id of "wrapper", your css would look like:

#wrapper{
margin:0 auto;
width:900px;
}

You can change the width but you get the point.

Thanks for your reply.
Would that be the same if I was just using HTML?

if your not using an external style sheet use...
<div style="margin:0 auto;"> </div>

if your not using an external style sheet use...
<div style="margin:0 auto;"> </div>

If you are not using an external stylesheet, you are doing it wrong!

I have a hard time doing this, I was fooled that doing this one needs to have an “text-align: center;” on your stylesheet.
