IE issue

    I’m trying the Bluedot template from Riosoft and encountering a problem. It shows as centered correctly, vertically and horizontally, and maintains a fixed width in Firefox. In IE the post area sticks to the far left of the screen and navigation to the far right (and if you narrow the browser width the navigation disappears completely; it doesn’t do so in FF). I’ve fiddled all I can with the CSS and am out of ideas. Can anyone offer some suggestions please? TIA

    As far as I can see that design does not use a rap or any kind of wrapper to hold it all together. You could add one.

    Thanks Root. I added a rap per your advice and am getting closer. Now it maintains a fixed width but I can’t get it to center. It always sticks to the left side. I want it to be centered regardless of the browser width. This is the rap I currently have:
    div#rap {
    width: 770px;
    height: auto;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    border: solid #000 1px;
    }

    In IE6 and FF-PR, it’s centered here. 1024*768
    Try this:
    body {
    text-align: center; /* IE 5.5 hack */
    }
    Add that to what you have for body.

    That did the trick! Thanks a ton!

    I nicked that from Root’s Gemini css 😉
