    Default Centering Page...Someone PLEASE help me!

    Pages like macromedia.com, yahoo.com, sports.yahoo.com, etc. are automatically
    centered in a web browser....or pages like MLB.com are fit to take up the
    entire screen in a web browser. I'm having lots of trouble with that because I
    do NOT know how to center my page or make my page fit the entire screen in a
    web browser. Can someone please help me with this? I have even taken the
    Macromedia Dreamweaver class in college and my own professor did not have an
    answer to this! Thanks!

    The answers in the other forum were no use. My page is made up of only layers...the answer they gave me was for Tables.

    A page with only layers is a page that will break badly when text is
    resized, but here is how you would do it -

    Change this -

    </head>

    to this -

    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    body { text-align:center; color:#CCC; }
    #wrapper { text-align:left; width:720px; margin:0 auto;position:relative; }
    -->
    </style>
    </head>

    change this -

    <body ...>

    to this -

    <body ...>
    <div id="wrapper">

    and this -

    </body>

    to this -

    </div><!-- /wrapper -->
    </body>

    and see if that helps.

    Hi I found some html codes to put in top and at bottom. What it does is,
    putting your complete page in a sort of one-cell table with centered format. If
    you like I can send it to you.
    Know anything about database connections and making tables appear in forms?
