> Possibly you could use a style tag like this: > <div style="margin-top: 50%; height: 100%; margin-left:50%;"> > <img src="ddjalogo.gif" width="640" height="329" alt="" /> > </div> Would this really do the right thing? The 50% in both cases would be 50% of the window width, no? This is not really centering... There was a discussion on this list of vertical centering a ways back. See http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2001Oct/0107.html and its various followups. I believe your best bet is to create a display:table-cell box positioned to take up the entire viewport and then center your content vertically and horizontally in that using vertical-align and text-align.

The association of this "money" to real life is currently being researched by R&D (put Reality in the Background; Dammit). Full results are expected RSN, however, preliminary results indicate that this substance "money" is often required to obtain such necessities as computers, pizza, hard drives, caffeine, a network connection, and resolving the conflict between ordering the pizza and maintaining your network connection.
