I mis-spoke (maybe), the issue is not the horiz centered box, it is the box expanding in height according to its contents. (ie the whole box expands in height according to the content in the main cell). (Some clients don't want 100% height).

Now you'll get the no javascript fanatics chiming in.

I have clients who want pages that have a box floating in the horizontal center of the page and the height of the box to vary depending on its content, the simple solution has been one table, it works, no hacks, no javascript, no regrets (unless I'm tossed out of the garden).

There must be more to the story because it's fairly easy to center a box horizontally without using a table. Are there any other details?
