    Default Aligning DIVS?

    How do i center a div? I have tried adding "align=center" to the end of the div stuff just before the < but it doesn't work.

    well. At the start of your page just use

    Code:
    <div align="center">
    
    other code here
    
    </div>

    Aligning a div tends to be strangly tricky, when you want the code to do it in the div, easiest way tends to be setting the margins to auto, while haveing a fixed width, it tends to do the job.

    Like he says but he forgot to mention thats with Css

    I recommend you to use css, much more precise to postition, like

    Code:
    #divname {
    position: absolute; left: 200px; top: 120px;
    }
    Stuff like that

    Converting them to tables defeats the purpose of DIV's.

    Not if you style them correctly.
