Hi,

Any easy way to center the two forms on this old HTML page (one is a 1shopingcart form, the other is a Google search tool at the bottom):

Moving Ahead Communications - Advance with Affordable Business Support Services

Want this to show with IE and Firefox, and while inserting <p align="center"> makes no diff., not sure which style tag sets are needed, if any, and where to place them.

Thanks for any help!

        While <div align=center> will work it is a deprecated standard. (No longer the "correct" way). W3C is dropping many of the older code based alignment standards in favour of CSS styles.

        I would using a <div style="text-align:center;"> tag. Obviously you can move the syles to an external CSS file for your site. This is just to prove the concept.

          Thanks for this update, Ben! I'll adjust the code. Much appreciate your time and sharing, again, thanks!
