Question

I’ve read about quite a few people having a problem with this and I’ve tried all the solutions I can find – hopefully someone can’t point out where I’m making a mistake.

I’m working on this site, and as far as I can tell, I’m in standards mode. The doctype is the first thing in the file, and it’s valid. I’ve tried using a wrapper div or body tag with text-align: center and the container div using text-align: left.

I can’t seem to find anything that works. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Your problem looks like it’s in the ie7.css file. It has this rule:

* {
  display:inline;
  zoom:1;
}

Inline elements don’t have margins. You’ll need to drop this rule, or add display:block; to .container_12 somewhere.
