Re: [WSG] Before I start
Thanks for your reply. Maybe I should clarify
I would like to have a 750px X 420px container div (wrapper) floating
horizontal and vertical in the centre on the screen. Is that possible using
css or do I need a javascript? (which I really would like to avoid)
I did a search for David Hasselhoff on the WSG site but no results. I'm
sure a David Hasselhoff search on google would give me some results... but
not the one I'm looking for ;)

In what way do you want to float it vertically? If you want to sit a box
in the vertical middle of another box, set its top and bottom margin to
be the same:
--
top margin
box
---
bottom margin
-
margin : 30px 0px;
vertical-align : middle; can be applied to table-cell and inline
elements (the CSS2 rec explains it). In tables you can then apply
td
{
vertical-align : middle;
}
instead of using html presentation of td valign=middle
I think, though, you are talking about floating a box so the text wraps
around it above and below. If you do search for the David Hasselhoff
experiment/competition run a while back - your answer may be there. I
believe The Daemonite (Ben) Bishop had a solution to Hasselhoff quandary.
:D
Cheers
