[css-d] Centering problem

2005-12-01 Thread Mário Gamito
Hi,

I have this problem with text centering in this page:
http://www.tuxdoit.com/prototype.php

1) As you can see, the left black space until Notícias is much larger 
than the one from the last letter of Newsletter until the end of the 
black bar.

I've broke my head trying to figure out where this left extra space 
comes from, but i have no idea at all.


2) How can i vertically center the text (vertical-align: middle doesn't 
work) ?

Any help would be apreciated.

Warm Regards,
Mário Gamito

Hi Mario, 

Altough, I am strongy confident with this but you can try this;


#menu2 {
text-align: center; //delete this
}

#menu2 li {
margin-left: 4.3%; //change this
 }

If you haven't yet, I'd suggest to go through

Change the selector from #menu2 to #menu2 ul and add padding: 0;
On #menu2 li change margin-left: 30px to margin: 0 15px;

It is important to remove the browsers default margin and padding for 
lists and list items.

 2) How can i vertically center the text (vertical-align: middle doesn't

 From #menu2 remove font-size: 36px.  It is pushing all else down  
Change height to line-height;

I'm not sure that is everything because I lost track of changes a bit, 
but it should get you started.  I also highly recommend against using 
px for this stuff.  When possible I do things in ems or % so it is more 
flexible when the font-size changes.

Thx! Indeed it was the javascript function preceding my DOCTYPE.

 Hi,

 I used the horizontal align code I found in previous posts of this 
 list. My site now is perfectly centered in Mozilla Firefox, but in 
 Internet Explorer it sticks to the left.
 Site can be found at: http://www.auberge-lebonvivant.be/index.php
 CSS can be found at: 
 http://www.auberge-lebonvivant.be/design/css/style.css
 
 Move the script that comes before your DOCTYPE down into the head 
 section. If there is anything preceeding the DOCTYPE, IE6 will go into 
 quirks mode and use the IE5 box model.

margin: auto forks in IE6 only if browser is in standards mode.
Anything that comes
before DOCTYPE in the source will triger quirks mode. In your source
there is entire
script sitting atop DOCTYPE...

Firefox honors the max-width rule on #mainContent, IE does not. Currently, IE 
does not support the min-width or max-width attributes. However, it is possible 
to fake the max-width rule using IE's support for expressions.

IE6 is in quirks mode, so better give it some quirks-styles. I couldn't
find the 'ie5-hacks.css', so couldn't check it.

Usual quirk centering:
body {text-align: center;}
container_inside_body {text-align: left;}

Alternative:
Delete the 'xml declaration' above 'doctype declaration', and run IE6 in
'standard mode'
