i have a div with position:relative.
Inside that div i have placed images with position:absolute because i’m going to have a slideshow with fadeIn and Fade out and the images have to be positioned absolute.

I would like to align the absolute-positioning images in the center
of their parent div. Can this be done??
Cause in the css part i have already defined all the images to be

left:0px;

My coding is as follows:

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">

div img{

    border:1px solid blue;
    position:absolute;
    left:0px;
    top:0px;
}
</style>
</head>

<body>
<div style="border:2px solid red;position:relative;width:500px;height:300px;">

    <img src="01.JPG" width="403" height="300"/>    
    <img src="02.JPG" width="403" height="300"/>
    <img src="03.jpg" width="170" height="290"/> <!-- this is a portrait,BIG problem         here!!! --> <!-- The image is positioned left -->
</div>

</body>
</html>

Thanks, in advance!

    Set:

    left:50%; margin-left:-<image width/2>px
    

    So in this case, for the third image:

    left:50%; margin-left:-85px
