copied!<p>So it appears the page with more content forces the browser window to have a scroll bar, this in turn pushes the centred div to the left as the available area has been reduced by the appearance of the scroll bar.</p> <p>So possible solution is to not have a centred div, ie change the wrap id css to</p> <pre><code>#wrap { width:912px; margin:0 0 0 0; background:Green; } </code></pre> <p>this didnt look to good with what I was working with.</p> <p>Another solution was the overflow, ie adding this</p> <pre><code> html { overflow:scroll; } </code></pre> <p>this actually looks ok, so will probably go with it.</p> <p>I did find another solution using JQuery based on <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/210717/what-is-the-best-way-to-center-a-div-on-the-screen-using-jquery">this</a> </p> <p>update #wrap to</p> <pre><code>#wrap { width:912px; margin:0 0 0 0; background:#fff; visibility: hidden; } </code></pre> <p>then use the following in each page</p> <pre><code> <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery.fn.center = function() { this.css("position", "absolute"); // Use This line On 'Short Page Content' this.css("left", ($(window).width() - (this.width()+18)) / 2 + $(window).scrollLeft() + "px"); // Use This line On 'Long Page Content' this.css("left", ($(window).width() - (this.width())) / 2 + $(window).scrollLeft() + "px"); return this; } $(document).ready(function() { $('#wrap').center(); $('#wrap').css("visibility", "visible"); }); </script> </code></pre>
