If you open the page in a text program and then do a search for "poll", you will see that code a little bit above it.

you should fix your code

If ever there was a case for tidy code, yours is it -- you can't find things because the code seems incomprehensible. Use more white space, add hard returns to the code (except within cells that have to be a certain size like in some complex layouts) so you can read it.

Turn:

Please take some time out to answer my poll below, thanks! align=center S Club 7 Capital Poll

into:

align="center">

Please take some time out to answer my poll below, thanks!

align=center
S Club 7 Capital Poll

And you can see the bold & italic piece is what you should add and the bold bits are things that are wrong or not necessary.

If you organize your code, and use something like htmlvalidator.com you stand a lot better chance of finding things right away, learning HTML enough to not spend days trying to center something, et cetera.

It's worth it! Really!

Thanks for highlighting the text, i know what bit to edit, its just just that when i go in to change the HTML code for my poll i dont get that code! Where did you get the one above from? I think thats the code for another picture on my site?

Hi, I updated my post above that posted a snippet of your code to bold the appropriate part that you need to update. Take a look, hopefully that will help.

Yes, but if she's just trying to center that poll she could do it either way and it would work.

That code is probably right before the poll code.

align="center" in the tag will align the table only to the center, align="center" in the , or tags will align the contents only

Megan — Thu, 29 Nov 2001 02:53:15 +0000

YOu could do it either way actually. You could center the table cell that is holding the poll as Brian showed you, or you could center the poll table as I showed you - both should have the same result.

I thought you were asking how to move the poll into the center of that black column (below the picture). If so, that should be the correct code. The code I quoted is the current code you have- as I said, I think you need to change the code that looks like this:
