hi everyone.

i want to place an image in the middle of a "div tag".

i tried using the auto selector to do this but it does not work.

so, i was wondering, does the auto selector work with Img tag. i tried the following;


.picmiddle img {
    margin:0 auto 0 auto;
    
    }

Images are inline elements by default. Set display block then margin: 0 auto to center it.

one question; do you mean i should margin 0 first and then subsquently use the auto

warm regards

He means that


margin: 0 auto;

is the same as


margin:0 auto 0 auto;

but add this


display:block;
