How can I positon layers?

@JohanvhSep 13.2004

Hi,

Have a problem. How can I set layers in the middle of a page or related to the page?
Use also tables on the same page a that no problem with the allign option. So, my question is: how can I set layers on a position that variable is to the page properties? Have tryed to set a xx% (percent)but that don’t works.

Thanks.

&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"&gt;
 &lt;html lang="en"&gt;
 &lt;head&gt;
 &lt;title&gt;center contents&lt;/title&gt;
 &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;
 &lt;style type="text/css"&gt;
 &lt;!--
 body {text-align: center}
 #alignment {text-align: left; margin: auto auto; width:60%;}
 p {background:red;}
 --&gt;
 &lt;/style&gt;
 
 &lt;/head&gt;
 &lt;body&gt;
 &lt;div id="alignment"&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;contents&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;
 &lt;/body&gt;
 &lt;/html&gt;

You can use relative and/or absolute positioning, http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_class_position.asp

This can I use to center the layer exactly in the center. What if I want the layer for example at 1/3 on the left?

Thanks.

@FangSep 13.2004 — #position:relative; left:33%;

@JohanvhauthorSep 13.2004 — #Thanks for your reply but...

It don't works. I have tryed several things but without a good result. Where do I have to set the 'position:relative; left:33%;'

I have a layer with fixed dimensions and I want it positioned at 1/3 from the left of the page.

Thanks for your help.

I think the last time (for this problem) ;-)

Thanks a lot !

@Stephen_PhilbinSep 14.2004 — #position:relative; left:33%;

is a css statement. You need to put it in a css file and then link to it. Or you could put it in a style block in the head of your document, or you could just throw it in as inline style statements.

Go and read up on css at http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp .

it should give you plenty of ideas and make your coding life MUCH easier. ?
