centering text in an image

Hi,

I'm using PHP 4.4.4. I have GD and freetype libraries. How do I
center text within an image if that text contains new lines?
According to the imagettftext docs, the x and y specified represent
the coordinates of where the first character begins. But if there are
new lines under it, I need to adjust that x and y by a certain
amount.

What to do? - Dave

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 ....

.. I try to use CSS when possible, though I am still learning and don't maximize its use. In particular, I still use a table to provide for a centered image in a few slideshows (though table vertical align doesn't work in Mozilla): http://zintel.com/homepics.html I've used combinations of <center>, style align 'center', table cell align, valign and height='100%' to get what I want, but I wonder if CSS can do it by itself.

I'm having trouble with centering in IE... http://www.ryanwsims.com/koh/ The image should center over the text. It does in Firebird, but not in IE for some reason. If you look at http://www.ryanwsims.com/sd.php everything's fine (i.e. centered)

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... Jerry

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? 2. Verticle centering in <div>

I've inserted a new banner in an existing page and I want the banner image to be centered (horizontally) within its container. I'm not bothered whether the accompanying line of text is restricted to the width of the image and centered, or whether is simply fills the width of the container. I've tried various things to achieve this (e.g setting margins to auto) but I'm not having much luck. The URL for the page is: http://www.eminox.es
