Centering Problem

I cant seem to get this to work.

http://www.keironlowe.host56.com

What I need is the banner with the low opacity image on it to be centered no matter the resolution, Ive tried a wrapper but because the wrapper is a width of 800 it cuts of the image, i've tried margin:0 auto; and i've even tried using the tag but it still doesnt center in higher resolutions.

You shouldn't need the tags in @Logan's example. That tag is deprecated anyway. Setting a width (not auto) and setting margin-left and margin-right to 'auto' in your stylesheet should handle the centering just fine.

First, get rid of that <center> tag you have around the <div id="banner"></div>. You don't need it and it's deprecated.

Then, swap out your current CSS of the following block:

#banner {
background-color:#000000;
background-image:url(../IMG/Banner_BG.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height:350px;
width:auto;
margin:0 auto;
}

For this:

#banner {
background:url("../IMG/Banner_BG.png") center #000000 no-repeat;
height:350px;
margin:0 auto;
}

Swapped out the many background attributes for the shorthand. Since you're showing the image as a background, added in the background-position property of center. This will now bullseye your image into the centre.

Try taking the centering and pic out of the CSS and into the HTML. the css would look like this:

 #banner {
background-color:#000000;
height:350px;
width:auto;
margin:0 auto;
}

and your HTML would look like this:

<div id="banner">
<center>
<img src=".....">
</center>
</div>

That is what I would do.
