Hi,

Could someone please let me know how to center a Login control on a page?

Can I use CSS to do that?

Thanks,
Dan

Hi dan,

You could use the CssClass property of the login control to style your
login control and position it:

<asp:Login runat="server" id="myLogin" CssClass="myClass"></asp:Login>

Additionally, you could also wrap your LoginControl in a div and then
position your div on the page wherever you'd like it using a css class

Or you could use this;

<center>
Login controls
</center>

it works for me

The <center> tag has been deprecated for ages and should not be used...

On what browser(s) / platform(s) have you tested it...?

Thanks for the reply.

I'm still strugling with it. The css applied to the login control seems to
re-arrange controls within the login but does not actually center the
'whole' login control. Would you able to provide a simple example?

Thanks,
Dan

Hey Dan,

If your css class moves all of the controls around, then you could try
the second approach of wrapping the login control in a div like so:

I agree with Mark, you shouldn't be using a <center> tag at all. It's
bad practice and it probably isn't browser compatible with all
browsers.
