Table to Div, HTML attributes to CSS styles

zapseo · 11-02-2009, 06:16 PM

This has been the one thing that has been bugging me for a while.

If I try to create a css style rule that is the equivalent of this:

<border="0" cellpadding="0"
cellspacing="0" width="411" align="center">

What would it be?

Especially, what would I use for: align="center" ?
I'm trying to find the equivalent while using KompoZer.
The best I can seem to find is "text-align: center", but that only affects the enclosed text, not the box containing the text. And that's what I want to do, I want to center the "box" containing the text.

Thanks!

Judy

My friend Anand Capur, owner of boostplatform.com, provided me the solution for the centering problem:

either:
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: WIDTH;

or,

display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;

THANKS, Anand!

try this:

border: 0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
width: 411px;

This gives the best explanation of how to do this that I've seen so far, I think: Max Design - CSS Centering - fun for all!
