Works in my Mac FF and Opera now.
While I am here Jonathan, I will take a peek on my Win 2000 box...
Nah, no good I am afraid. Yes, it is trying, but the effect is so
marginal as to count for a fail on this particular size
thumbnail. (I will leave you to ponder defences for WinIE, I feel
more merciless towards it).
Anyway, pity... The point of bothering with this sort of thing is
to provide for the majority in this centering. I will try to
tweak by using sizes that I often do use, namely, 200x150 for
landscape, 150x200 for portrait... maybe IE will do better with
different figures.
Just one q, is IE 7 any better than 6 on this score? In other
words, does IE 7 center the mass of thumbnails as good as in FF
or as weakly as in IE6?
In some of the applications I have in mind for this centering, I
have landscapes and portaits, each block with their own wrapper.
I suppose I would have to sophisticate up the JS to address the
two blocks...
Perhaps the situation could be improved (at the cost of a little
screen wastage) by somehow making for the mass as a whole to use
up a much more "noticeable" amount of left and right margin.
