Okay, I have a header on a blank page. Right now, it's aligned to the left, touching the side of my browser.

I want to have an imaginary 900px wide, 100px high box, with the header in it. (not repeating though, as the header image itself is only 300px wide).

I want the imaginary box to be centered, and the header to the very left of that imaginary box.

Here's some codes I have..

Stylesheet.css:

Code:

.header {
	position:relative;
	background:#ffffff url('images/header.png') no-repeat;
	height:100px;
	width:900px;	
	padding:0;	
	color:#ffffff;
	align:center;	
}

Index.html:

Code:

<body>
<div class="header">&nbsp;</div>
</body>

Why won't it work?

CSS does not have an "align" property. Try "text-align" instead.

You can't align layout elements with text-align. You have to give it a width and then use margin: auto;

Code:

.header {
	position:relative;
	background:#ffffff url('images/header.png') no-repeat;
	height:100px;
	width:900px;	
	padding:0;	
	color:#ffffff;
	margin: auto;
}
