Centered page works but...

The page is now centered thank to the code suggestion by all in this
group. Excellent!

However, now the page is centered in the middle, and all the space
around it is WHITE. How can I control the background white color in
the browser. www.wintensive.net to see the example I'm talking
about. I would love it if I could get all the white around it to be
black. Thanks!

Anywhere within the <head> </head> tags of your page add

<style type="text/css">
body {background-color: black}

Dunno if Pub will let you keep it though.

By the way, I saw you ask about how to center the page in the regular
newsgroup. Credit is given to Jo,
Re: Software to assist centre pages? posted 1/14/08 . It seems to work for
2003 and 2007. Spike also suggested a way to use ReplaceInFile, but I think
maybe the user will have to customize his instructions...

table

| Publisher does it automagically of course. Format > Background.

Hi all,

First, that is correct. Credit to Jo for the simple centering code
involving the table. Just using the <center> for the body wasn't
enough for me to make it work.

As fo the background color, I figured out what David wrote shortly
after. Publisher simply does this for your in the Format > Background
command.

So I am very pleased with the results so far as the page is nicely
centered on any browser and the background is black. Thanks to
everyone!

Cool. I'd be curious to see if it stays centered after you publish more
pages.
Please post back when you do.

You have to edit the code each time you produce new pages from an edited
Publisher doc. That part is not automated....but should be. The option to
center the pages should be built-in...

centering is difficult when using layers

Jason I'm kind of new here. Can you tell me how to place my webpages at the
center?

Read the thread "Fire fox and centering" by WY on Feb 9 for a discussion on
centering Pub web pages.
