Hi Keith,
If I understand you correctly, you just need to enclose div#textpic in
another div, then apply the styles that are currently defined for #textpic
to that enclosing div. After that, applying margin: 0 auto; to #textpic
should do the trick.
Markup:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="textpic">
</div>
</div>
CSS:
/* These are the styles currently defined for #textpic */
div#wrapper {
float: right;
margin: 1em 7em 15em auto;
max-width: 575px;
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
padding-top: 7px;
border: 1px dashed blue;
}
/* This will center #textpic within #wrapper */
div#textpic {
margin: 0 auto;
}
