That's why. But I admit that it's not always easy to avoid them completely when doing complex layouts. And in this case, I'm sure it doesn't really matter which way you do it, as long as it works ;-) Because tables are not made for layout, but for structuring data. That’s why.

Method A: Put it into a DIV with a width of 100% (or the width of your content) and set the DIV’s style to “text-align:center”

Method B: Put it into a DIV and set the DIV’s style to “margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto” (which might not work in this thing that Microsoft calls a browser …)

*web developer mode off*

I already voted from reading about it in Dandellion's blog, but, why not log in with a couple of alts and vote again? ;-). And, I prefer this over the group limitations -- the teen grid's not THAT popular, so i'm at 8-10. (Yes, unsure as my computer with good connections -- crashes [the WHOLE computer, not SL] at the login screen, and the one that can handle it awesomly, has a lousy ping and lots of packet loss.)

How about position:relative and then moving it those 30px to the right? I hate CSS. Tables are no good. How about position:relative and then moving it those 30px to the right? I hate CSS.

In another life, I have learned that, in order to keep a userbase happy, a degree of opennness is required from the software vendor. Maybe LL needs to apply some openness to the way they handle the Jira as well. well, I have done a lot of basic manual HTML in other software I’m using, but thanks anyway ;-)

Works for me, but I'don't know how this blog platform would handle that. You know what really gets to me, some days? The incessant whining and complaints that can be heard in certain parts of the SL community, usually about something LL did or didn't. Voting through Jira is a much more positive and polite way to channel frustration, feature requests, bug fix requests and other assorted wishes.. Put it in a table and then center the whole table?

Does anybody know how I get this dumb poll centered in the blogposts?! It already has the align = center attribute. PS. Does anybody know how I get this dumb poll centered in the blogposts?!
