Hi there and thanx for EXCELLENT tools.

I have a <div> container and then a div for my menu.

How can I center my menubar? At the moment it looks like it is right aligned.

Thank you so long for your help.

Regards,
Deon

without seeing an example it's hard to give an accurate solution... it would be best if you could post a link to an example page so we could get an idea of what needs to be done.

Without seeing any code or example pages, the best advice I could give would be to use...



<style type="text/css">
#this_is_your_menu {
position:relative;
margin:0 auto;
}
</style>

Hi again and thanx for the reply.

What I mean with "center" is that the space to the left of "Home" is the same as to the right of "References". How do I accomplish that?

Thanx,
Deon

oh, ok...

try this:



<style type="text/css">
ul.glossymenu{
text-align:center !important;
}
</style>


put that in the <head> of your page between <head> and </head>


EDIT FOLLOWS:

on second thought, that may not work...

you might try this:


<style type="text/css">
div#menubar{
text-align:center !important;
}
</style>

Sorry, but that even did not help. I have also gone so far to put a table in the menubar <div> and centre it; no success.

Is it not practise to have what I need?

Thanx for your trouble.

in "menu.css" replace this section



.glossymenu {
background:transparent url(../graphics/menu//menur_bg.gif) repeat-x scroll 0 0;
height:46px;
list-style-image:none;
list-style-position:outside;
list-style-type:none;
margin:0 auto;
padding:0 0 0 55px;
position:relative;



and also



.glossymenu li a {
color:#000000;
cursor:pointer;
display:block;
float:left;
font-family:sans-serif;
font-size:13px;
font-weight:bold;
height:46px;
line-height:46px;
padding:0 0 0 18px;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none;
}
