ok, whenever i design a html page on a 800X600 screen, things look fine. however, when i view my page on a 1024X768 screen, my page is always at the top. is there any way that i can position my web content at the middle of the screen no matter what screen resolution im at, i have seen it on many sites and i think it requires javascripting. can anyone please guide me on this, perhaps point me to somewhere i can learn to do this? im using dreamweaver MX. thanks…

All you need to do is create your whole site in a table!  
First you got to make sure that the width and height is 100% and  
then put all code between the div tag

Below in the attached file is a image being center.

Unfrotunately that only works in EI, no go for Netscape/Mozilla, the only solution I’ve come out with that works cross-platform is to open your site within a frame set - having 3 vertical frames the 1st and last being set with variable heights and the middle being set at, say, 400. See attached file
