css with site centralized

It's easy to use css, layers, when your site is align with left margin
because layers have a fixed position, but when this site is align in center?
How can I use css if this center can change in accord screen resolution?

Go to project sevens website and download their LayoutDesigner extension
(free) and off you go!

It's simple -

For centering layers, here is a good tutorial

http://www.roast-horse.com/tutorials/_tutorials/css_centered_content/index.html

and here is a code example -

(inline styles used for clarity)

<div id="wrapper" style="width:760px; top:0; margin:0 auto;
position:relative;">
<div id="layer1" style="width:200px; top: 25px; left:140px;
position:absolute;">blah</div>
<div id="layer2" style="width:180px; top: 136px; left:23px;
position:absolute;">blah</div>
</div>

and here is a site using the method -

http://www.great-web-sights.com

Try that - an outer relatively positioned division with a width and auto
left and right margins. All interior AP divisions will be centered, yet
retain the
same relative positioning.

did you get it to work?

The problem is that the image should be positioned within the the red box as it is its parent container.

But that's not what you have told it to do -

<div style="text-align: center; height: 100%;">

<div style="border: 2; color: #000000; background-color: #FF0000; height:
100%; width: 400px;">
<div style="position: absolute; left: 0 px; width: 100px;"><img
src="images.jpg"></div>
</div>
</div>

Change that code to this (note several changes) -

<div style="text-align: center; height: 100%;">

<div style="border: solid 2px #000; background-color: #FF0000; height:
100%; width: 400px;">
<div><img src="images.jpg"></div>
</div>
</div>
