So i am trying to code a vb theme, and i am stuck

http://www.wearebattlefieldheroes.com/?styleid=3

I want that div tag #nav2 in the center of the page, not the writing but the div box its self.

here is my css

CODE
#nav2 {
text-align:center;
    height: 300px;
    width: 970px;
    background-image:url(images/misc/header.gif);
    
}


Thanks Simon

To center a div you must specify its width.

i.e.

CODE
div {
width:200px;
margin:0 auto;
}


margin:0 means that there should be no margin on the top and bottom of the website.
auto means that the left and right sides will be automatically distributed. Thus centering your page.

I do not understand what you want to do. Do you want to move the navigation above or below the header image?

create a padding class.

.nav-padding{
padding-bottom:10px;
}


Then just put that div inside the other.

I would suggest that you make the links white.

color:#FFF;

Currently they are very hard to read.

You could also add a little padding between them.

div a {padding:0 10px;}
