Centre a table on a page

Hi thanks will try, but have to go out now.

Good morning Renee’,

Did as you suggest, it made no difference. Maybe I should go back to the table which was made in access and attempt to reduce its size.
Terry

I think this can be beaten with the right custom css. It seems a shame to reduce the size of the table from what you wanted.

Renee’s line:

margin: 2em auto;

must end with a semi-colon, and you have a colon. The colon will stop it working.

We may have to try a few alternatives to get it looking good.

Hi and thanks,

Semicolon entered , still the same.
I certainly appreciate the help for a guy who is 75 and still learning.

https://www.terrycallaghan.com/ gives 404 not found error. What happened? I was just getting warmed up.

Hi . sorry.

I lost my site due to wrong information given to me by my hosting provider and deleted my public. file. I am endeavoring to recover it.

Hello all,

I am back on line.
Terry

The last custom css didn’t work. Here is some more to try. It replaces what you have already in the custom css plugin.

.singular .entry-header {width:100%}
.singular .entry-content {width:100%}
.entry-content table[style]{height:auto !important}

Thanks lorro,

However , did not work.

It looks like you have full stops after .entry-header and .entry-content, and you have used curly brackets instead of square brackets for [style]. Best to copy and paste to make sure it is exact. CSS breaks easily.

Hi again. I corrected the errors but still the same. Maybe it is not possible?

It looks the same only because the page is being cached so we are seeing an old copy. Press control-F5 to fully reload the page and you should see a difference. The table is over to the left, but not wide enough, so a slight change then it should be there:

.singular .entry-header {width:100%}
.singular .entry-content {width:100%}
.entry-content table[style]{height:auto !important; width:auto !important}
