Hello everyone,

I'm a high school wrestling coach that enjoys doing small graphic design projects.. I created a website for my wrestling team.. however the pages when displayed align to the left side of the screen in Internet Explorer. In Mozilla the pages are centered (just like i want them). If someone could please tell me why this is happening, and how to get my pages centered in Internet Explorer.. I would greatly appreciate it.

The site: www.garwrestling.com

This question should be in the HTML & CSS section.

Centering the table via align won't always work. Place a div around all your content, with the left and right margins set to auto. Then set text-align to center for your body element.

See this tutorial:
CSS Centering

the best way to center a table (for cross browser support), in my opinion is:
CODE

<center>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:300px; border:1px solid #CCC; text-alilgn:left;">
<tr>
<td>look at me :)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>


Hope that helps

The center tag was deprecated in HTML 4.01, and should not be used. Use CSS for styling.
