Re: Center DIV

I apologise, I was not aware of any activities to solve the problems 
discussed. Thanks to the WG for taking the time to look at this. I 
didn't mean to troll the list, I just want to see things moving 
forwards.

This would be great for the simple case of the single block centre 
aligned to the page.

For aligning blocks within blocks macro properties, I think something 
like the following was suggested a couple of weeks back and seems ideal 
to me:

block-align: center	=	margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;
block-align: left		=	margin-left:0; margin-right:auto;
block-align: right		=	margin-left:auto; margin-right:0;

How could the block being aligned be instructed to shrink wrap it's 
contents? Is this the intent of the proposed "intrinsic" and 
"min-instrinsic" keywords for the width property. If so, excellent. 
This also goes some way to decrease the problem of vertical/horizontal 
asymmetry.

Cheers,

Ben
