SYMPTOMS
When you center a form in FrontPage Editor, it does not appear centered when you browse the page in Netscape Navigator.



CAUSE

On the Table menu, click Insert Table.

Click OK. After you create the table, copy the form field components into the table.</li> Center the form in the table, by following these steps: <ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"> Right-click inside the table and then click Table Properties on the menu that appears.</li> In the Alignment list, select Center.
