How can I create my pages so that no matter what browser someone is using it will still be centered? I created my page in 800x600 but if you try to view the page in one higher or lower it is off center. Please help, Sam
Put all your content in tables. Then center the table. If your table is set to 100%, this also eliminates the problem of the text being truncated when it prints.

Another option is as Garridon said put your content is tables, but set the pixel width at a standard for 800x600. That way no matter what the screen size is, your content will stay and you createed. Sometimes if a table is set to 100% instead of a definite pixel width, the contents inside the table moves around.
For example the tables on my site are set at 750pixels
I've used tables also, but I was in an office the other day and was showing my site to someone and the sentences in the "SERVICE" section or table was running from one sentence to two...example:
"Information Technology" was showig up as:
"Information
Technology."
The settings were at 1024 x 768!! the only other clue was it was running IE 5.
I have the same problem periodically with mine. Right click on the cell in question. Choose Cell Properties. Look for the Specify Width option. Check percent and change it to 100%. That'll take care of it.
To keep the table from readjusting, you can use a pixelshim (a graphic the same color as your background). Put it one of the cells and adjust the size accordingly.
