Hi folks,

I'm a complete novice here so please forgive my possible/probable lack of some of the basics. I started a website over ten years ago and never completed it due to other commitments, I am now trying to pick up the somewhat disjointed pieces once again.

The issue I am stuck with is that the old half finished website had some form of flash menu navigation bar which I am aware is now dead in the water. I have therefore removed the flash bar and I am now attempting to replace it, for simplicity, with Vista-Menu buttons which I believe uses a combination of javascript and html.

The resulting Vista generated menu looks okay but it has to date managed to resist all of my attempts to have the menu centered within a div, instead it sits hard left.

What I have tried:

I've tried way too many things to list, logic (somewhat limited due to being a novice with coding), trial and error, it's driving me nuts. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Stick in something to the left. Everything is "flowed" (usually).

Thanks for the reply Gerry but I'm afraid I'm just as much in the dark - below is what I am currently faced with.

#VistaMenuBar {
background-image: url(B2Fish_SNIPPP);
height: 28px;
width: 100%;
color: #FFF;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: text-bottom;
}

var vbImgPath="LATEST-files/"

Css Menu Navigation by Vista-Buttons.com v5.0.0

and this -

<div id="VistaMenuBar">
  <tr><!-- Begin Vista-Buttons.com -->

<script type="text/javascript"> var vbImgPath="LATEST-files/"</script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="LATEST-files/scwp36t.js"></script>

<a id="vbUL_wp36ta" href="http://vista-buttons.com">Css Menu Navigation by Vista-Buttons.com v5.0.0</a>

<!-- End Vista-Buttons.com -->
</div>

You've got an open table row in the middle of a div... (tr) ....

Thanks for that Gerry, I have removed that(tr) but it doesn't help with the centering issue - it was a remnant from an earlier idea that I might have to place a table inside a div to get control regarding centering the script.
