pmskypemsnyahoo | | Aligning text in smack center of a page (6th Jan 10 at 10:25am UTC) | | I want to align my splash image/text in the smack center of the page, but I cannot seem to figure this out.
Anyone know of a way to do this? I mean for both valign and center align (yes I know firefox disobeys many center tags now). | |

Google it because as far as I remember it involves some JavaScript etc. The only other option is to just add some margin to the top of the image a nice small number just to push it away from the top of the browser.  | |

if you don't assign a class to the div, then it wont have a border of anything.I do it on my sites all the time and I used firefox up until a few days ago. | |

I'm 99.9% sure that it won't center vertically to the whole page.  | |

Thats funny, cause I do it all the time is anything you can do it via CSS and using the div tags, using a class. | |

pmwwwgtalkvForum | | Re: Aligning text in smack center of a page (10th Jan 10 at 12:18am UTC) | | I believe there is a CSS way to do it provided you know its' height. I believe the idea is to put it in a container with some absolute positioning of 50% top and a negative top margin.
If you want, I can try to dig it out from my notes? | |
