heheh simple html and css will do this for you.

if you prefer the table structure just create an outer table and set it to width,height = 100%

Apply this CSS code to your file.
Code:
body {
   text-align : center;
   padding : 0px;
   margin : 0px auto;
   height : 100%; /* for vertical alignment - optional */
}
That will center align any data below the body parent.

Have you got the page posted live somewhere, so we can take a look at it?

I think what you are looking for is

<div style="position:absolute;">
<div style="position:relative; left:10px; top:100px;">content</div>
</div>

You need both of them because if you just do relative the div still takes up space in your layout, and you use the relative to actually position the content.

gnagey, you got the absolute and relative backwards.

P.S. Why did you respond to a thread that's about 2.5 years old?
