I need a box......

Death Slaught

I need a "box" so to speak thats in the center of the page that holds the contents of that page in it ( the home etc. buttons and what the page says) also i need it to hold the <hr> tag inside of it. without going outside the "box".

I know it may not be possible in HTML but if it is that would be prefered over CSS.

Thanks, Death

You could just create a <div> element to hold the contents of your page in. Give it a CSS property "margin: 0 auto" to center it on the page and "width: ***px" to give it a fixed width. Any other HTML tags can be placed within the DIV.

If you don't like using CSS then just positioning a table in the page would do almost the same, but the W3C would prefer you to use CSS for layout instead of tables.
