RE: [WSG] display differences firefox ie 7.0
If you place text-align: center; on the body tag in the CSS and then margin:
auto; on the first 'container' divider then the web page should be
centralised in Firefox and IE.
Like this:
body { text-align: center; }
#container { width: 960px; margin: auto; }

MH:
Someone earlier this week sent a very good presentation that explained a lot
of the problems you are facing. It is quite a long presentation (more of a
lesson really!) but it answers a lot of the problems you are having. There
are also a collection of great links sprinkled through that we could all
find useful in our bookmarks list.
give it a whirl!

If you use that technique, then don't forget to set text-align back
to left on #container.
... but it is pretty pointless today - IE has supported margin: auto
for many years now. Just make sure you aren't in quirks mode.

Re: [WSG] display differences firefox ie 7.0
In wrapper, change the margin to be: margin: 0 auto; To center block-level elements, you set margin-left: auto and margin-right: auto (margin: 0 auto is a shortcut for that). In IE, at least IE6, it wrongfully would let you use text-align: center to position block level elements. Not sure about IE7. FF only lets you use the margin method.

Re: [WSG] display differences firefox ie 7.0
Hello again Michael;
Same story different instance, in this case the wrapper needs to have them, ie.
#wrapper {
text-align: left;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0 auto;
width: 950px;
}
