Aug 12, 2009 10:45 AM

Hi

Im tyring to center my container div here;

 

http://www.tfproperty.co.uk/1/template.html

 

 

I've given it the following CSS;

 

.container {
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
}

 

Shouldn't this work? Thanks

    Try giving it a width - it looks as though your content isn't all sitting within the container.

    Give your container a temporary coloured border so you can see what's going on.

    Most welcome I really do recommend the web developer extension for Firefox - it will outline everything for you so you can see such problems.
