How do i center my banner in IE and site appearance advice

in firefox its centered using th </center> tag but in IE it is to the left.

also if anyone has any opinions on how i could make my site template look better please chime in

Id use align="center" instead of the center tags, they arent xhtml transitional, I dont think.

Anyways, about your template. Very plain, very dull. It needs some color changes, gradients, and most importantly: images. Images make or break your template sometimes.

 

thanks for the help...could you tell me what the CSS code would be to have a repeating image as a background?

 

{
margin:0;
background-image: url (../images/dollarsanddbg.jpg);
}

this is how my bg image is coded and it still wont show, ive uplaoded it to FTP is there any other coding i need to put in perhaps the templatedetails xml file

EDIT: added it to templatedetil xml file, still not showings

 

{
margin:0;
background-image: url (../images/dollarsanddbg.jpg) center;
}

that will work....
