Css Div Centering is being stupid by M73A on 11-11-2008 at 01:57 AM
http://people.brunel.ac.uk/~dt08ggm/sliced/divtest2.html
is my 'layout' at the moment
most of the div's are centered using
code:
margin:auto
but when i pin the footer to the bottom edge of the browser with absolute positioning it always stays to the left. how can i center it?
any help appreciated! thanks!
yeah i know it looks a bit naff but im not asking about they design, i need help with the code....
thanks guys.

well you cant do that easily with position:absolute
though you could if you have a % for the width make the left % 1/2 what is left... if you dont get me... here is an eg:
width:50%; left25%;
that will center the footer for you...
and i really cant see why you are wanting to use absolute for a footer... especially one like that... i would be much easier to just make it what ever is default and just use margin:0 auto;

because its just floating around underneath the main box if i dont make it absolute to the bottom of the browser
