Initial Description





A way to do 100% DIVs that adjust to content and center themselves both vertically and horizontally automatically. Tested for all browsers at 1920X1080 resolution. The 96% body height fixes Firefox and IE scrollbars that appear without reason and might need to be adjusted for smaller or larger windows.









Initial Title





Cross-Browser Auto Vertical/Horizontal Centering (Chrome & Forms Compatible)









Initial Tags





ie, browser, center









Initial Language
