You forgot px. Change this:

Quote:

#container {
width: 1220;
}

To this:
#container {
width: 1220px;
}

Btw, I like your domain. It's very nice.

You can also use <div> tag to center whole webpage in a website...as to add a constant value can cause problem on different resolutions...

I will suggest you do stick to CSS instead of div tag to center the content of the site until you can not avoid it. Better performance

CSS is used to style HTML tags (including div).

For future reference, the best way to do this is to set a fixed width to the div and then set the left and right margins to auto.

Code:

#wrapper { width: 1000px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; }

Code:

<div id="wrapper">This div is centered</div>

(And yes, I know about CSS shorthand...just formatted it like that so it would be easier to understand for beginners.)
