Anyone heard of this happening? I use CSS to format my website with a single column centered in the page. To do this I set the width of the parent block and margin-left, margin-right to auto. This works fine on all my pages. Here's the wrinkle...

Recently I have added some dynamic database driven pages using an XSLT stylesheet to display the XML data pulled from the database (FM Pro 7). Inside the XSLT page I link to my CSS file for formatting. When I load the page everything looks fine in Netscape, and Firefox, but in IE the website is no longer centered it is left aligned. I have worked on this for a while but can seem to find a reason for the change so any help would be appreciated.

Never mind :-) Of course as soon as I give up and post a question the answer comes to me.

Just in case anyone else runs into some thing like this you have to define the html DOCTYPE in the <xsl output> tag using the doctype-public and doctype-system attributes.

Hehe, it was always the same for me, whenever I posted questions here. I do remember coming across this issue myself a number of times actually, so it's good to have it here for posterity.

Cheers,
