[Centering a Wrapper Div]

Hi Jen,

 

Thanks for posting that.

 

A good place to pick some CSS tips on page layout is on our dedicated CSS site.

[Centering a Wrapper Div]

I am posting this because it was one of my first issues with designing. I could not, for the life of me, figure out how to get my site's wrapper div (container) to center on the page.

 

Here's the css answer, it's pretty simple:

 

#wrapper {

width: 950px ;

margin-left: auto ;

margin-right: auto ;

}

 

Remember, this is the wrapper div, it's the div that wraps around the complete site. You don't need to have any other margins or padding or anything like that for this div. Note there is no float, change the width to the width of your site. Set the left and right margin to auto - that's it.

 

I hope this helps.

[Hiring a Developer on a Per Project Basis]

I'm sorry Krillz, I'm not understanding.

[Hiring a Developer on a Per Project Basis]

I'll take your advice and give the new contractor some small things to do and then see how that goes. I do agree that something may be wrong with my current contractor, however, if he won't talk to me and it continues to hurt my business (i.e. 2.5 weeks late on a project) then I have to try someone else.

 

Thanks much.

[Hiring a Developer on a Per Project Basis]

Yes, I already considered that and tried to talk to him, however, as far as he is concerned, there is nothing wrong...

 

I honestly think he has work he makes more money doing, or has too much.

[Hiring a Developer on a Per Project Basis]

Thanks Newseed, I've worked with someone very trustworthy for over two years now, but lately I think his priorities are elsewhere. Unfortunately he is slow to finish, missing deadlines and not as available as he was before. I always pay on time and I am not a micro-manager... I am a little too non-confrontational actually.

 

I will keep your advice in mind, I appreciate your help.

[Hiring a Developer on a Per Project Basis]

I'm a great fan of this website and I've found a lot of helpful information here. I have a dilemma and this was the first place I thought to ask…

 

I need to hire a web developer on a contract (per project) basis. How do I make sure this contractor doesn’t go behind me and try to steal business? I can't see any way of keeping customer contact information from them when they are working on a site with me. I know there are a lot of people doing this, how are they protecting themselves and their business? I am sure someone here has the answer and I really appreciate your help.

 

Thanks much,

 

Jen
