February 15, 200818 yr Hi everyone, First post and I need your help. I have been using dreamweaver and photoshop to create webpages now for around 6-7 months and i have a pretty ok knowledge of using those. However I have just branched out in to fireworks as this has a lot of functions i like. I have a page with one dropdown menu but I cannot export this to dreamweaver with out the table being on the left where as i want it centered. It can be exported and centralised but i have to delete the drop down menu which I do not want to do. I have looked every where to find a resolution but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help with this or offer a work around? Many thanks for your time
February 15, 200818 yr Firstly, welcome to the forum! Why not head over to our newbie section and introduce yourself properly? What exactly is it that you're trying to do? You can use css to centre everything inside the body. body { text-align:center; } or you can centre the table table { margin:0 auto; } ^ That'll only centre it in FF. You'll need to set the body text to centre to centre the table in IE. Hope this helps.
February 15, 200818 yr Author What i have done is create a layout I like in fireworks including a drop down menu on one of the buttons when you mouse of it to give you more options. All this works fine however when i export it and then open the htm file in dreamweaver to add some more things that i know how to use in DW the page i have created is on the left of the browser. I want to center it. I have tried adding align center in the html but the page will not budge. I assume this is down to the pop up menu code in either the htm or the css as when i delete this functionality in FW then rexport and open in DW i can then input the center html and the page then centers in the browser. Does that help you understand my problem more? Sorry I am still very new to this

February 15, 200818 yr Well, if your html looks a bit like this: <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div>This is where your dropdown menu goes</div> </div> <body> you can use the following CSS: body { text-align:center; } #wrapper { width:X; margin:0 auto; text-align:left; }

Edit:- I have found this http://www.adobe.com/devnet/fireworks/arti..._styles_03.html but it does not seem to work with FW CS3 I'm having exactly the same issue. Ive been loooking for a day now and modified the style.xtt in fireworks as described in above document by adobe , however Ive got drop down menus/ javascript as well and cannot seem to get the container which contains the drop down boxes aligned center. Ive added left margin the css tag on the container for the drop down menus , which moved it further left , however still working on to get it centered based on page
March 25, 200818 yr bascially i just want to be able to create a drop down menu and have the page cnetered. Is there a way to do this in dreamweaver? Drop down menu can be made in dreamweaver. It has popup option just like Fireworks. Click on the image or the link where you wish to add pop up menu then go to Behaviors> Show Pop-Up Menu.
