I can't seem to center an image I have. The image is in a div
surrounded by 2 other images. I have tried text-align
and setting margin
to auto
but that doesn't seem to be working. The slider
div below holding the slides should be centered but it's not.
Here's the html:
<body>
<div id = "container">
<h1>
Meet some of of our Members
</h1>
<img id="prev" src="images/rsz_back-button.png" alt="prev">
<div id="Slider">
<div class = "slide active">
<div id ="slide-copy">
<h2>
Echo
</h2>
</div>
<img src="images/rsz_a0615655ad9ed49f75bf617e2df6a47c.jpg"> </div>
<div class = "slide">
<div id ="slide-copy">
<h2>
Victor
</h2>
</div>
<img src="images/rsz_dollhouse-tv-show-2.jpg"> </div>
<div class = "slide">
<div id ="slide-copy">
<h2>
Sierra
</h2>
</div>
<img src="images/rsz_0000053222_20081110111439.jpg"> </div>
<div class = "slide">
<div id ="slide-copy">
<h2>
Alpha
</h2>
</div>
<img src="images/rsz_1alan-tudyk-transformers.jpg"> </div>
</div>
<img id="next" src="images/rsz_forward-button.png" alt="next"> </div>
</body>
and here is the css:
*{
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
body{
font-family:Gotham, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size:14px;
color:#fff;
background:#333;
line-height:1.6em;
}
a{
color:#fff;
text-decoration:none;
}
h1{
text-align:center;
margin-bottom:20px;
}
#container{
text-align:center;
width: 980px;
margin:40px auto;
overflow:hidden;
}
#slider{
margin:40px auto;
position:relative;
width:512px;
height:385px;
overflow: hidden;
float: left;
padding:3px;
border: #666 solid 2px;
border-radius:2px;
z-index:0;
}
slider img{
width:512px;
height:385;
}
#prev, #next{
float:left;
padding-top:50px;
z-index:1;
}
The #Slider
div comes right after the floating #prev
div, which pushes the #Slider
to the right.
Solution: don't float the #prev
. Or clear the float in the #Slider
, whatever you want. (If your intention is to show the #prev
to the left of the screen, give it position:absolute
or something.)
By the way, there are errors in your HTML. The ID slide-copy
appears twice.
And errors in your css. 385
should be 385px
, and slider
and #slider
should both be #Slider
.
