The way I learned is to use view source in web pages.

Running Dreamweaver in split screen mode may also help, as you can see the HTML as it is created.

Perfect, thanks -boRg 

Are there any good (not too heavy ) books or websites where I can learn this type of simple thing ?

Try <div> tags instead of <p> tags eg:-

<div align="center">

Can anyone help please ?

I have added a dropdown box in my Forum, with links to take the User to other sites. In IE, it appears in the middle of the page (which is where I want it to be) however in Firefox, the Dropdown box aligns left. This is the code I added to the Navigation buttons file:

<p align="center">
<form name="hop">
<select name="choose" onChange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)">
<option selected>FTL - Links</option>
<option value="http://fromthelane.co.uk/Forumguidelines.htm" target="_blank">FTL Forum guidlines</option>
<option value="http://topspurs.com">Topspurs.com</option>
<option value="http://www.fromthelane.co.uk/Affiliates/index.htm">FTL affiliates - Support your Message board</option>
<option value="http://asongforledley.co.uk">A song for Ledley</option>
<option value="http://fromthelane.co.uk/Robbointerview.htm">FTL's Paul Robinson interview</option>
<option value="http://coys.sportsmaestros.com/index.php">COYS Messageboard</option>
<option value="http://www.tottenhamtrust.com/">THST</option>
<option value="http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/index.asp">Official Spurs site</option>
<option value="http://home.skysports.com/">Sky Sports</option>
<option value="http://www.newsnow.co.uk/newsfeed/?name=Tottenham+Hotspur">NewsNow</option>
<option value="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport/">BBC Sport</option>
</select>
</form>
</p>

And here is the result (the Dropdown box is marked "FTL - Links")

Can anyone tell me why it aligns left in Firefox please and more importantly, how to get it to align in the Centre ? You might think I should know what I am doing after putting that code in, but someone told me what to do

Cheers.
