Thank you all very much for the proposed solutions, here are the results: @Dan G.: Dan, I added what you proposed but it seems to center the red panel in the center of the screen, I'm try just to center text within the red panel.
@Gearóid: What you suggested in already in the sample, doesn't work. (to see change sample url to test2.htm) @Micky: I did research the CSS only techniques but the good ones all require 1 or more images (heavier), where as the jquery solution uses zero images. Also this technique seems well respected in the jquery communuty, and if I use jquery anyway why not the best jquery solution right? Well three people who know more than me responded and still no centered text, this is getting scary. regards, ltg On Jun 30, 6:23 am, Gearóid O'Ceallaigh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why not just define a css class with "text-align: center" and add this > to whatever element you need centering? > > I'm presuming you want to center the "preview" text in the example so > this should center it to your rounded corner div.
