Problem with margin-left:auto / margin-right:auto with Internet Explorer

LanceJJul 25 2008 — edited Jul 25 2008

Hi

I have a problem specifically with alignment of elements on a page with IE (latest). All works well in Firefox or Mac Safari but when I view in IE, the alignment, in particular where I use margin-left:auto / margin-right:auto (either in combination to center or to justify left / right) does not work.

So as a basic example:

<h:panelGrid>
  <h:panelGrid>
    <%-- some table elements --%>
  </h:panelGrid>
  <%-- Button needs to be right-justified; this approach works nicely on all except IE --%>
  <h:panelGrid style="margin-left:auto;">
    <h:commandButton value="Press Me"/>
  </h:panelGrid>
</h:panelGrid>

Help much appreciated
Lance
