Centering page...please help!!
 

I am trying to center my webpage (it's currently left aligned), and haven't been able to figure it out. From the forums, I've only been able to figure out that this is set in rectangle_top.tpl. So...my rectangle_top.tpl code is shown below. Please help!


{* $Id: rectangle_top.tpl,v 1.13.2.7 2005/09/06 11:07:44 max Exp $ *}
{ include file="common_js.tpl"}
{if $config.Adaptives.isJS eq '' && $config.Adaptives.is_first_start eq 'Y'}
<script id="adaptives_script" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript 1.2"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript 1.2">
if (document.getElementById('adaptives_script'))
document.getElementById('adaptives_script').src = "{$current_location}/adaptive.php?send_browser="+(localIsDOM?"Y":"N")+( localIsStrict?"Y":"N")+(localIsJava?"Y":"N")+"|"+l ocalBrowser+"|"+localVersion+"|"+localPlatform+"|" +(localIsCookie?"Y":"N")+"|"+screen.width+"|"+scre en.height+"|{$usertype}";
</script>
{/if}
<table class="okvir" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">


Thanks!!

<table class="okvir" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="900" align="center">

Change the width to whatever you want

Re: Centering page...please help!!
 

just add a css declaration to your okvir class:

margin: 0 auto;

That should do it, there are several ways to do it though. I prefer css, hate tables.

Add the colored text in home.tpl:

{include file=rectangle_top.tpl}
<div align="center">
.....
.....
</div>
{include file="rectangle_bottom.tpl" }

Heh...how many ways can we tell the poor guy how to center his page? :)

Re: Centering page...please help!!
 

IGC - That won't work because the table starts within rectangle_top.tpl and ends within rectangle_bottom.tpl All the code is going to do that you provided is center everything inside the table, and I believe that he wants the table itself centered on the page.

Balinor - haha, I didn't see your post until after I posted my reply. You are just too quick for me to keep up. :)

Wow...that was fast!! Balinor's code worked perfectly....thank you all for the help!

At the risk of beating a dead horse...

I spoke too soon...my suggested fix above does not work in IE6, only in Firefox (text is centered in IE6). I found another fix. According to the author, it's cross-browser compatable.

Add the colored text to line 2 in rectangle_top:

...
<div class="centered">
<table class="Container" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="{$width|default:"100%"}">

And add this to line 21 in rectangle_bottom:

...
</div>
</table>

Add this to skin1.css:

div.centered
{
text-align: center;
}
div.centered table
{
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: left;
}
