Does need given dimensions for the centered block.
Compared with a simple table cell, you need a shrink-wrapped centered
box without the need of explicitely declaring a dimension, and it should
work in the browsers the users are using.
Its not that there aren't good solutions out there. And they are all
worth a closer look at the advanced techniques.
It's just I think that when you try to center more than a simple logo,
the problems begin.
Try your solutions in standards mode, in a complex layout with
positioned elements and floats and more content of unknown hight, and
size/rezise the window and scroll (o.k., on the other hand, thats more
than a table can do).
The link from Bruno I have provided twice in this thread and the
solution of Georg try to limitate these issues.
But again: Doesn't dead centering of complex elements risks that the
page gets unusable? How to center more content? Isn't the usual three
column page an abstraction of the dead center for long content?
