[css-d] help centering items
Hi People, 1 At http://bit.ly/k6aFjU I'm trying to get the following to happen, and can't work it out for some reason: I want Metro New Jersey Green Drinks 3 Gatherings - You're Invited! and the elephant to appear as a single copy block - to the left of the Join box (another copy block). I want both blocks to be centered on the page. 2 At http://bit.ly/jwgrff (home page, same site) Is there a way to get the picture to float centered in the middle of the page? When the window expands, I don't want the picture to end up very far to the left of the sidebar - it looks very odd that way.

As for this, I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say. Try making an
image of it or explaining it differently?

This is easily achieved. If this is all you need in the leftcopytwothree div,
then simply add text-align:center; to the .leftcopytwothree {} rule on line
487 of greenwei.css. If there will be more text in that div, or if you use
this same div for another page, then wrap the image in another div with
text-align:center; in the styling.
Best,
Kimi

Make .ctr .small inline-block, and use vertical-align: middle or top or
??? to line it up with the elephant.
Old IE will likely need a separate rule, following that one, to declare
that it is inline. Explanation: inline-block only adds layout to IE 5
- 7, but layout works a bit like inline-block on elements that are inline.
.ctr .small {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.ctr .small {
*display: inline;
}
/* star hack for IE 8 alone. There are better ways... :) */

Sure:
.leftcopytwothree {
text-align: center;
}

[css-d] IE6 Clipping of Text in Header
Hi all; I have another request for assistance here. The page is at: http://www.robertsmart.ca/ZZnew/index.html I incorporated Eric Meyers reset CSS sheet, made some other changes, and now IE6 (Windows XP Pro) is clipping some of my Header Text. Does anyone know what is causing this strange behavior? Can you can see that the bottom third of the text HaveAGoodDay.ca is missing in IE6? Hopefully someone here can figure out why. Thanks in advance. PS: Thanks to those who responded to my last question last week. That problem is now resolved. Thanks again.

XP IE/6 and IE/7 clip h1 this end.
Correct compliant browsers and IE 6/7 will follow suit
#textholder {
border: 1px solid fuchsia; /* 4 position only*/
font-family: Palatino Linotype, Book Antiqua, Palatino, serif;
text-align: center;
display: block;
float: left;
margin: 0; /* delete not needed*/
padding: 0;/* delete not needed*/
padding-bottom: 20px;/* add*/
width: 35em;
}

Re: [css-d] help centering items
Chetan, copy block is a typesetting, or publishing term, meaning a block of text. Text can be also referred to as copy, as in copywriting). The block of text can be one, or several paragraphs, long.

Re: [css-d] help centering items
So when you say that you want it to appear as a single copy block, do you mean you want to style the logo and the h5 together and give them the appearance of a block? The solution to that would depend on what style you wish to apply. You have to be more clear.
