CSS Help Required

Sun Dec 9th 22:42:07 2007

This goes out to anyone who might know the nuances of IE6 more than I. I have an overall placeholder div, which I need to be centered. The following works in Firefox and Opera, but not IE6. I don't have access to IE7, but I suspect it may well work due to improved CSS compatibility, I could be wrong though. Anyway, there will still be a large IE6 audience for this, so it's crucial it works under IE6.

margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;
How do I get the same effect in IE6? This div needs to show up centered in all the major browsers. I've searched the net and so far found a lot of people asking the same question with no satisfactory answer. I'll update on my progress here if I sort it before I get a response.

Incidentally, this is why I hate site design. At least with a compiled language you know where you stand and what you get. At least on the syntactical level.
