I'm trying to vertical align and horisontal align my site to the center of  
the screen. 
 
I ended up with this code which seems to work in Opera, Firefox and IE: 
  <body style="padding:0px;margin:0px;height:100%"> 
    <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="height:98%;width:100%"  
border="0"> 
     <tr> 
         <td valign="middle" align="center"> 
             THIS IS THE CENTER OF THE SCREEEN 
         </td> 
     </tr> 
    </table> 
  </body> 
 
However this is not valid html, because if I put: 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"  
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> 
at the top of the page, the page is not centered any more. 
 
Is there a valid way to do this? (frames is not an option)
