Hi there, Im not very good at HTML and was wondering weather you guys could help me with the following.

1.I'm trying to make this bit of text to be in the middle of the page, rather than start of the middle of the page if you get me?

Here's what it looks like now, I just want the text to be aligned to the right, but the whole paragraph start in the middle.

http://www.image-upload.org/thumbs/d08/nov/FR27mO.jpg (http://www.image-upload.org/pics/jpg/d08/nov/FR27mO)

Here's the HTML coding, with the basics, <html> etc removed.


<div align="center"><br>
Our mission is to provide you with the best free image hosting service on the
net! <br>
Our service is a perfect place to host images for ebay auctions, forums, internet chat rooms,
photo albums or your own website.
<p>
</div>



2. In internet explorer the text in the FAQ & TOS pages seem to nearly touch the adsense banner and the text at the bottom. I've tried putting in <br> & <p> to make a gap, but it creates a huge gap when the page is viewed in firefox then.

Here's the code, <html> and the other basics removed.


<p><b>What is Image-Upload.org?</b></p>
<p>&deg; We offer an online image storage solution which allows users without
webspace of their own to upload as many images as they want to share with others
around the world. These images can be linked from anywhere - forums, internet
chat rooms, even your own website. We currently offer just one type of account:
absolutely <strong>free!</strong></p>
<p><b>How Do I use it?</b></p>
<p>&deg; Go to the home page and Select the 'Choose/Browse' button to search for
your image, navigate to the image of your choice, once you have it selected,
hit the 'Open' button. Once you have done this, click the 'Upload' button to
start the upload process. Depending on your internet connection you may have
to be patient. When the transfer has finished you are given a preview of the
image and the relevant web code to use. You can use that web address to link
to your image, from emails, chat rooms or even your own web site.</p>
<p><b>What file type area allowed?</b></p>
<p>&deg; JPG, GIF & PNG images are allowed.</p>
<p><b>What is the maximum filesize I can upload?</b></p>
<p>&deg; 1MB/1024kb</p>
<p><b>How long are the images stored?</b></p>
<p>&deg; The images are stored for 3 months.</p>
<p><b>Some of my images are deleted, how come?</b></p>
<p>&deg; Images that violate our Terms Of Serivce are deleted, as well as the
automatic deletion of images after 3 months.</p>
<p><b>Who do I contact if I have further questions or problems?</b></p>
<p>&deg; Please <a href="mailto: ">Contact us</a> if you
have any questions or problems and we'll try to get back to you. </p>



Thanks for your help :)

Are you outting both a <p> AND a <br>? Try just one or two <br>'s and it should work fine. As for the center align i'm not sure I understnad. Your saying it isn't aligning now in the middle but you want it two? Or it isn't and you want it to?

I want the text to be indented so that it does start of from the right againt the side of the page, if you look at: http://www.image-upload.org

You can see the first line of text starts of in the middle of the page, but I want it start the same place as the line underneath it.

Well, that is because you have it aligning to the middle but don't have enough text to fill an entire line.

Instead of:
<p align="center">


Use:
<p align="left">

You have made it center, so just change that to left or right
