i cant get everything centered on the search on www.helpasone.com , can anyone help me out? the google logo is always on the left and if i choose a differnt layout the search bar gets stuck on the left

I don't see no surprise there:

Code:

<div class="cse-branding-logo"><img alt="Google" src="http://www.google.com/images/poweredby_transparent/poweredby_FFFFFF.gif"/>


</div>

given that your css says:

Code:

.cse-branding-bottom .cse-branding-logo, .cse-branding-bottom .cse-branding-text {branding.css (line 26)
display:block;
float:left;
}

sorry but how would i change it? I don't know css at all....

**andrewgale** · 07-17-2008, 03:13 PM

how did you even see that?

**LadynRed** · 07-17-2008, 03:28 PM

He, like many of us, use Firefox with the Firebug and/or Web Developer extension. It allows us to see, and edit, html, css, even javascript.

**andrewgale** · 07-17-2008, 03:32 PM

so if i download this extension, i can change it to center middle?

**andrewgale** · 07-17-2008, 03:36 PM

ok actually i got firebug and i see the problem, how do i fix it? is it possible

**LadynRed** · 07-17-2008, 03:43 PM

Well, any change you make in Firebug is only temporary, but it IS a good tool to test what would happen when you remove the float:left. If you hover over the float:left property, you should see a slashed circle icon, clicking that will disable the property.

In order to permanently fix it, you have to edit the CSS file itself.

**andrewgale** · 07-17-2008, 03:44 PM

the css file itself is hosted by google no?

**andrewgale** · 07-17-2008, 03:47 PM

www.w3.org for information regarding css, you may need a lot more than just the centering.

**summer14** · 07-18-2008, 07:33 AM

Try putting center tag after your body tag and center end tag before your body end tag.

No, for God's sake don't do that. That is a depreciated tag and doesn't belong in your document.

**highanddry** · 07-18-2008, 12:07 PM

really? for "Gods" sake regarding tags?

**LadynRed** · 07-18-2008, 03:31 PM

Really !

**wayfarer07** · 07-20-2008, 02:02 PM

Yes, God told me personally He doesn't like the <center> tag anymore...

**Foundationflash** · 07-20-2008, 03:36 PM

Frankly, my prayers would be answered if people stopped using them, even if they started using align="center".
