stkr Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Hello,I'm trying to line up my footer in the center of my page. In CSS, I've set a background image, as well as the information for my legal notices copyright.Here is the code for my footer: }#footer { clear: both; width: 960px; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto; padding-top: 10px; border-top: 2px solid #4ba381; background-image:url(../images/footers/vlfooter.jpg)}#footer p { margin: 0; padding: 10; line-height: normal; font-size: 77%;}#legal { float: left;}#links { float: right;} Here is the website url: Lost Valley DesignWhile it displays correctly in Firefox, the footer is on the left side in Internet Explorer. Does anyone know how to fix this?Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescientist Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 real quickly, it's definitely worth pointing out that you don't have a doctype defined for your page, and as such it is liable to make things in IE come out wacky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 For older versions of Internet Explorer, aside from margin: 0 auto, you have to put the footer inside a container with text-align: center; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stkr Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Thanks so much to the both of you!! I defined a doctype and it shaped right up! I also added the text-align: center; to my CSS document just in case. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibineku Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Really nice looking site, and the cycling background images in the photography section is a nice touch. Great pics, too. What sort of camera do you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site looks nice, it would be a shame for little things to possibly come out funny on other people's browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
