    Resolved [RESOLVED] Web page text centered with Internet Explorer but at left edge in Firefox

    My website www.taylorentertainment.biz has the text centered left to right on all the pages with Internet Explorer 7 but with Firefox the text appears at the left edge. I was playing around with things and then discovered I messed things up for IE 7. I've now gotten it back so it looks good in IE 7 but the text is still at the left edge in Firefox.

    Use the style margin:0 auto; on the DIV tag to center it within the TD tag.

    text-align: center is for centering the text within an element. There is no Text in the td element but IE is using that style to align the div, which is incorrect.

    Excellent. That did the trick. Thanks a million. You just earned some points towards getting an eleventh green gem.
