When putting someones old javascript function on my page it makes it no longer

  • 0

When putting someones old javascript function on my page it makes it no longer center in IE(7). What I think is causing it is the page width is getting superficially longer as a result of the script.

This is how I have it centered:

#container{width:960px; margin:0 auto;}

Here is what I have tried to fix it (needless to say it didnt work):

 if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft")!=-1) {
  document.getElementByID("container").style.marginLeft=(((document.body.offsetWidth - 960)/2));
 }

Thank you ahead of time! 🙂

    Internet explorer has had problems with margin:0 auto since the dawn of its creation. Its very picky.

    Take a look at number 6 on this article and try that
