Only if you really need to support IE5.5 and earlier, which most  
people don't do since they have an insignificant market share.

[WSG] Centering Elements

2008-04-09 Thread Chris Kennon 

Hi,

I yet to devise an elegant solution centering all elements within  
div#innerContainer. Would a gifted Standardista offer an elegant  
backward compatible solution?

div#innerContainer { text-align: center; }

div#innerContainer * { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; }

Chris,

Be careful, this will also center all the text for all the elements 
inside #innerContainer.


Also, I'd use

div#innerContainer  * {
margin: 0 auto;
}

instead.

Cheers,
Chris.

Hi Patrick, don't know your way can work fine with IE?

margin: 0 auto; or the margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; just the same
for horizonal center. But i think it needs text-align: center for working
with IE.

If you use text-align: center; just use text-align: left at which you need
its text be aligned left, is it right?
