Hey Bruce,
Playing around with your CSS in firebug, I think your best bet for
centering your navigation text would be to modify your existing "ul,
li" styling to this.
ul, li {
display:inline;
list-style:none outside none;
margin:0;
padding:0;
text-align:center;
}
Ss for styling the rest of your field inputs... my advice is to not
use a table. Mostly because CSS can do what I believe you're trying to
accomplish.
My suggestion for accomplishing this would be to get someone involved
in the actual HTML output source code and work out the styling for
you.
hope this helps,
Brandtley
