Centering Google Banner Ads

[Guerino1]

Hi,

Assuming the use of HTML/CSS, what's the best way to center a google banner ad unit?

Thanks for your help,

Frank

I read it once. You use <center>script</center>, and change your web page to transitional.

you can try this...

<div style="width:600px; margin:0 auto;"><!-- put your ad code here... --></div>

the 600px width can be changed into the width of the ad

Hi,

Thanks for the responses.

May I ask:

1) What does it mean to change a web page to "transitional"?
2) How is it done?

Thanks,

FG

Transitional refers to the type of DOCTYPE declaration you are using on the site.

At the top of your source code there is a DOCTYPE declaration. Use the View/Source function in your browser to see the source code. It should be the first line in the source code.

The using <center></center> option given is not good. The center set of tags was deprecated ages ago.

JohnnyS' solution is better.

Even better would be to create a class called center so it is recyclable elsewhere in the site.
