# Valid XHTML?

 * Hi all, first of all, I’d like to say how great wordpress and their users are
   😀
    That being said, I wanted to discuss a small problem I’ve been having. I 
   keep getting a non-valid xhtml result page from the w3 validator. I’ve been trying
   to center images primarily, and I tried both <center> and <div align=”center”
   >, but w3 says that that’s not allowed for both of them. Here’s a look at the
   w3 page: [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Frobinalex.ceejaycee.net%2F](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Frobinalex.ceejaycee.net%2F)
   Anyone know any other methods that ARE xhtml valid? Thanks in advance 🙂 -Robin

 * In css:
    .cent { text-align: center; } In post <div class=”cent”> blah blah </
   div> 🙂

 * You could have some conflicting css…
    If you post a picture using that css, I’ll
   have a look ?

 * Yeah. I think you can use the [center] in transitional, but you can’t necessarily
   do it INSIDE the [a href]. try centering around the entire link, see if that 
   works.
    Some things don’t come up as valid inside a link — which is ticking me
   off right now as certain styles of output from CG-Amazon aren’t validating. Too
   freaking bad. How else am I supposed to have an image and text items that all
   function as a single link?? 😉 -d

 * “This Page Is Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional!”
    Yes! that did the trick, looks 
   like I had to put it outside the image AND href itself. But as you said there
   will be times when we need it to be valid from inside the link. I wonder why 
   it’s doing this .. hm… well thanks again guys, at least I got it working now 
   😀

 * My amazon plugin also does not validate my page, all of my errors have to do 
   with my amazon posts. Can anyone help?
