I am nearing completion of a website, and cannot remember the code to center the website in the browser window. I am using layers in Dreamweaver 8, and below is the code that I am using, but the website is still aligned on the left when I preview it. The website size is 800 pixels wide by 600 pixels tall.

In the past I designed a website very similar to the one I am working on now, and I used Layer 0 as a containment layer (so this is what I am trying to do now).

#Layer0 {
position:absolute;
left:50%;
top:50%;
width:800px;
height:600px;
margin-left:-400px;
margin-top:-300px;
z-index:0;
}

Thanks.

I usually just set a certain margin amount off the top and do

margin:50px auto;

Just keep the width and height as you have it

You really do NOT want position:absolute, that will cause you headaches. If you have everything set that way, better to remove it all and learn to use the normal document flow and floats.
