Centering in window

Report · Mar 06, 2009

Hello. I am a beginner with Dreamweaver, but I have noticed many sites are able to center the displayed page in the browser window, such that on a higher resultion screen the page always appears centered in the window with appropriate width black borders on each side - wider as the resolution increases. Can anyone tell me how to set this up in Dreamweaver CS3? I have a "master" template page that everything else is built from (this contains a logo and a Spry menu, along with an editable region). Many thanks in advance for the help!

centering. Look at the CSS and the HTML. That's how to do it.

Can you give me a hint about what to look for? I am truly a beginner (trying to upgrade the brain daily). My pages are already built - is this something I can change on a property of the template, or something I can add in HTML?
