I've just spent the last couple of hours mucking around with some website creation software (WebSphere v6) and it seems OK for a numpty like me.
However, I cannot seem to make the pages appear centrally when on the web. In the program they look OK but as soon as it is uploaded it all sits on the left side of the screen leaving a large area on the right blank.

any ideas chaps?

Adding a <center> tag after the <body> tag and before any tables or content might work

I had an old web program that did the same thing, I just moved things to the right to compensate

The old tried and tested method is to place eveything in a table with 1 col and 1 row height 100% and width 100% then it appears center screen regardless
