Hello I would like to center the buttons located at http://www.doughboy-entertainment.com/video/
The ones that read "Featured, All Categories, Images, Random, Submit".

I tried using <center> but that wont work.

The page code is...

<div id='tabs'>
<ul>
<li><a {if $pagetype eq "feature"}class="current"{/if} href='index.php?pt=feature' accesskey='f'><span class='key'>{$LAN_2|default:"Featured"}</span></a></li>
<li><a {if $pagetype eq "all"}class="current"{/if} href='index.php?pt=all' accesskey='a'><span class='key'>{$LAN_3|default:"All"}</span></a></li>
<li><a {if $pagetype eq "categories"}class="current"{/if} href='categories.php?pt=categories' accesskey='c'><span class='key'>{$LAN_40|default:"Categories"}</span></a></li>
<li><a {if $pagetype eq "images"}class="current"{/if} href='images.php?pt=images' accesskey='i'><span class='key'>{$LAN_4|default:"Images"}</span></a></li>
<li><a {if $pagetype eq "videos"}class="current"{/if} href='videos.php?pt=videos' accesskey='r'><span class='key'>{$LAN_39|default:"Videos"}</span></a></li>
<li><a {if $pagetype eq "submit"}class="current"{/if} href='submit.php?pt=submit&amp;part=1' accesskey='s'><span class='key'>{$LAN_5|default:"Submit"}</span></a></li>
</ul>

And the css page is...

Add the bit in red to the code:
(not sure if this is the "proper way" but it works!


<div class="header">

No, no, NOT the old awful "align='center' " !!! He's using CSS and very well I might add, don't add deprecated tags.

Try this solution:
#tabs ul{width: 70%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#tabs{text-align: center;}

The margin 0 auto; and the width on the UL will center in Firefox and non-IE browsers. The text-align:center will work for IE 6 and below.

thanks. it worked.

Hey Scotia.. I don't throw things
Besides, looks like you're Scottish.. you might be a relative of mine

thats what I'm finding so hard about CSS, it is so easy to revert to things that you have been doing for years...

Oh well, back to the CSS books again...
