    Can't get <img> to align center?

    Oddly, I can't seem to get the image to align to the center of the page?
    I'm using IE 6, tried FireFox 2 still the same! The image just aligns to the right
    for same reason. The text aligns to the center fine, see my code below:

    [HTML]<body>
    <h1 align=center>Te st</h1><br><br>
    <img src="italy.jpg" align=center height=160 width=240 border=4>
    </body>[/HTML]

      There is no such attribute for images as "align". And this makes sense because an image is an inline element, just as text is. <h1>, however, is block level and that's why align is available.

      To center the image, you should use CSS.
      <img style="margin:a uto">

          thanks for that, someone suggusted <center></center> which also did the trick.

          Thanks again.

              <center> was deprecated many years ago. Use CSS.
