IMHO your HTML syntax is wrong and I'm rather surprised that IE
understands it. Try:
<body onresize="Cente rIt();" onmousemove="mo useCheck(event) ;">

If you validated your HTML the validator would tell you what was wrong
with it and you wouldn't have to ask.

There is no onresize event handler for the body element in HTML 4.01: so
that too is invalid.
The window.event property is MSIE-specific. MSIE does not support DOM 2
Events interface. So both Firefox and Netscape should reply in their
javascript console that "event is an undefined object".

You may find Richard's answer irritating and frustrating but I assure
you that the very first thing to do when facing a layout or error or a
problem of some sort is to make sure that the markup code is well-formed
and valid and that the CSS code is valid and does not generate parsing
errors. Often, the source of problems is there or starts there.
So:
- onresize is not a valid attribute for body element; you would possibly
want the resize event to be registered on the window object instead
- event is a proprietary object in MSIE 5+
- MSIE 6 does not support DOM 2 Events attributes and methods

There you go.

You've not got enough information to say that, he may be using a
doctype, or internal subset with an onresize attribute for body. The
brackets problems are not solvable in a document you can serve as
text/html.

Well, I was referring to HTML 4.01. And I always assume that (a standard
doctype) as default when someone post.
If I remember correctly, in such case (internal error correction
mechanism), Mozilla-based browsers and MSIE assign the resize event to
the window object by default.
I wanted to point out the invalid attribute.

Jim.
I don't understand that last part: what brackets problems? You mean
missing quote " signs?.. ok then :) Yes, missing the quotes is decisive.
Cheers,

You can't do that however, especially as the W3 standard doctypes are
not the only ones that user agents support, particularly onresize on
body which is supported by the majority of user agents.
If I remember correctly, in such case (internal error correction mechanism), Mozilla-based browsers and MSIE assign the resize event to the window object by default.
This is not "internal error correction" it's the documented behaviour
for the user agents.

the entry point of the user to my pages, has access to a cookie

I am currently developping a user interface with Ajax/C#/.net. And I am
facing a problem with Mozilla, and Firefox.
I use the function innerHTML to load a Web UserControl into a div, this
way the main page never gets refreshed. It works perfectly under IE,
but with Mozilla and Firefox I got a problem : there is a space before
the thing I want to display everytime I use ".innerHTML".
