Place DIV in center of browser window?

[Noozer]

Just wondering how to place a fixed size DIV in the center of the browser
window. If the browser is resized I'd like the DIV to adjust it's position.
I also do not want the DIV to scroll with the background/content.

Thx!

/* center <div> for IE*/
div{width:500px;margin:auto;}

/* position div for browsers that have a clue*/
div,[nul]{left:50%;margin:0;margin-left:-250px;position:fixed;}

position:fixed; not supported by IE. behavior buggy with window widths
less than <div> width in moz1.6. fine in opera7.23.

..box {margin:10%;}

Do not specify a width and it will adjust accordingly.
To my knowledge, only the background can be made stationary.

Ah, fair enough. I have him killfiled. Though I did check in Google
first, and only brucie's showed up. Guess I should have waited a bit.

I still maintain brucie has multiple personalities, though. ;-)

Perhaps Google have killfiled him too?

LOL. Could be - everything else in the thread except your post (and this
one of course) show there now, but Richard's still isn't there.

Richard uses X-No-Archive: yes.
Meaning his posts won't be archived.

For what it's worth, I've got a sample of my result posted...

I know it ain't perfect, but please let me know what you think of the
layout. There is some fine tuning I want to do, but I'll try and figure it
out before asking.

I do have one question... In FireFox 0.8, why don't the links in the header
menu work?

Richard uses X-No-Archive: yes.

So he forces Google to killfile him. I don't blame him, really.

(though I wonder if he's aware that 'no-archive: yes'
doesn't mean yes-archive)

Possibly not. X-archive: no is a lot more logical than X-no-archive:
yes.
