Can someone help me for a second with this HTML?

[Epoman]

I want to center the vert-scroll box, I know I could just use <center> BUT that also centers the text. Please see http://www.trinahalcomb.com please ignore my messy code, I will clean it up before I launch it at the proper domain.

Thanks Guys
Epoman

Which scroll bar do you want centered you have 4

 

[Epoman]

Oh I'm sorry I mean the vert NEWS box on the main frame that auto-scrolls lines of text. I just want to center the whole box.

See this Screenshot http://pics.bbzzdd.com/users/Epoman/centerthis.jpg

Are you using CSS or all HTML?

Im not sure if this would work or not but setup a divider for the box and then a separate one for the text thats inside and then in css center the first divider and leave the test like it is not sure if it will work or not though

Can you show me? copy and paste the script from view source.

The easiest way is to just delete the </center> tag in this line of code:

<b><center><font size=7>A Site For Patients By Patients</center></font></b>

and place it after the scroll box script.

 

[Epoman]

huh? but I want 'A Site For Patients By Patients' on top of the Scrolling box.

get rid of the damn frames. I don't even want to try and look at the code for that site.

It will still be there. Just delete the </center> tag, not the whole line.

Yeah , I did that but it now centers the text IN the box too. I want just the BOX centered. Take a look.

It shouldn't. Try the same thing again though and then in this line in the javascript:

txt+='<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 height='+boxheight+' width='+boxwidth+'><tr><td>';

Change that last <td> tag so it looks like this: <td align="left">

Actually, in his case, it'll probably need to be <td align=left> (no quotes) for it to work.

It's ok I just expanded the box. Centered it that way, it works.
