<div style="text-align:center;">[google script]</div>or<div align="center">[google script]</div>You could add a width too or even this (replace your banner width below accordingly:<div style="margin:0px auto; width:468;">[google script]</div>

<div style="text-align:center;">[google script]</div>and <span style="text-align:center;">[google script]</span>works in IE6 but not Firefox 2.0<center>works in both but I am sure you guys will discourage thisWill test your additional suggestion later.Thanks

The Cascade of Styling gives id's more 'weight' than classes, so try adding an id= to the element which you need to target. And a class will simply add to the strength of the selector.

<div id="google_ads_id" class="centered" >[google script]</div>div#google_ads_id .centered { margin:0 auto; text-align:center; }
