Hi,
I have a div with an image inside it. The image needs to be centered in
the div. I thought I could do this by setting the image's margin to
"auto auto", but it seems to do nothing. What am I missing here?
Thanks,
Aaron
P.S. Here are the exact styles I'm using:
..imageholder { width: 100px; height: 50px; border: 2px solid black;
float: right; margin-right: 20px;}
..cat-table td img {margin: auto auto;}

Use text-align: center
auto works only on block elements, not inline elements.
And if you want to use margin: auto on block elements, you will
have to set width on it.

Allright, I set the style for the image to {display: block; margin:
auto;}. Shouldn't this then center it in the div it's in? It does
center it horizontally, but it remains at the top vertically. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Aaron

No need to shout. At the time Knud responded, the OP hadn't
stated yet that he meant vertically.

Have you tried "vertical-align"?

Oh, sorry, my fault. I just posted a similar question shortly ago
("centering vertically" :-)
I apologize.

Sure. Search the group archives. The topic of centering --
horizontally and vertically -- has been discussed *numerous* times.

I normally centre an image using a <p align="center"> ... </p> format, but I
understand that this is "deprecated" in the latest standard in favour of styles.
The problem is that I cannot find a style that will centre an image,
"text-align" doesn't work and probably shouldn't.
So what is the "standards-correct" method of centering an image?
TIA

The image should center over the text. It does in Firebird, but not in

Hi,
I'd like to append/amend the following code from the Dreamweaver extension
"Open Picture Window Fever" for the ability to center the PopUp window:
By default, it allows the window to be offset on the left and top, but does
not include a centering option.
I'm thinking it would include something like (screen.width-imageWidth)/2;
somewhere but not sure how do go about doing this.

I want to center an image on the screen and have text centered over the
image. What's the best way to do this?
I've been playing with style tags and I can get the stuff to center
automatically OR have the text appear on top of the image. But in the
second case, the image and text aren't centered properly.
Any help is appreciated...

1. Horizontal centering a <divin browser window.
The current trend seems to be to place page content in a fixed width area in the middle of the
browser window. How is this achieved? If I use a top level <divthen I can place it with CSS
attribute 'left:', but this is a fixed offset. Is it possible to have a <divcentered in the
browser window?

SHORT VERSION
=============
I have a bunch of identical fixed-size single-celled tables that rest
against each other horizontally thanks to "float:left". These tables
are dynamically generated and the number of them can vary greatly. They
are all contained within a parent table cell, which is centred on the
page. But I am unable to find a way of centering these table cells
within the parent cell.

Hello,
I've created a table that has two rows that are span across three columns.
The third row has three columns, each with an image. The last row is also
span accross three columns. The span rows are centering their data.
however, the row with three columns, each with images (myimages1-3) are not
centering with the rest of the table. Any idea why?
Thanks in advance!

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
