My thanks to all who've helped. I've now got a few things to try in slow time, for which I'm grateful. Marc: Unfortunately, I can't provide the listing URI as my son just dumped a pile of code on me and asked for help. I've checked his current listings and none contain the code we're discussing here. Secondly, I haven't tried wrapping one div in another yet, but another list member has suggested that doesn't work in IE9 (to which I don't have access :( ) As much as it grieves me, I suspect that Jukka might be correct and the most reliable might well be the kludge in my OP. However, to have some sort of future-proofing, I should probably reinforce the deprecated align attribute with some CSS thus: <table align="center" style="margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;"> <tr><td style="width:600px;"> -- The running text goes here -- </td></tr> </table> That said, eBay listings don't last forever and so anything that works now in all common browers will probably be good enough and for most anything else I can declare an appropriate doctype to keep the page out of quirks mode! Thanks again to all, -- Geoff ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [[email protected]] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
