I am nearing completion of a website, and cannot remember the code to center the website in the browser window. I am using layers in Dreamweaver 8, and below is the code that I am using, but the website is still aligned on the left when I preview it. The website size is 800 pixels WIDE by 600 pixels tall.

In the past I designed a website very similar to the one I am working on now, and I used Layer 0 as a containment layer (so this is what I am trying to do now).

#Layer0 {
position:absolute;
left:50%;
top:50%;
width:800px;
height:600px;
margin-left:-400px;
margin-top:-300px;
z-index:0;
}

THANKS. This is a problem many people run into.

You NEED to create a seperate DIV around all your page content, just inside the body TAG. Give it an id of "container".
Now create a STYLE for that div as follows:
Code: [Select]div#container {
  width: 100%;
}

Then use the following style for your main page content:
Code: [Select]div [???] {
  width: 800px;
  margin: auto;
}

It's basically setting the margin of your page's content to auto which does it but you need the container div for it to work.
