Centering controls on a .aspx page

[sagars76]

I want to center a control at the middle of the page. When the window size is
changed the control should get centered automatically. I have used flowlayout
with the following code. But it doesn't work
<asp:label id="lblProject" style="Z-INDEX: 105; POSITION: relative; TOP:
136px; ALIGN: MIDDLE" runat="server" Font-Size="Medium" Font-Bold="True"
Width="272px">PROJECT STATUS</asp:label>

I'm not sure exactly what you're doing (is there anything else on the
page?), but have you tried using a DIV element around the control and
setting align, or a control that supports vertical-align or valign on a
container the uses up the whole page?

I am trying to use a label control to display an entire table with 4 columns
and numerous rows. If I use the div element the label control gets centered
but the 4 columns to the right of the control and white space to the left of
the control makes the table page appear very odd. I want the table that is
displayed withing the label control to be centered in the middle of the page
and not the label control itself. I used align ="center" attribute for the
table with the label control string but it doesn't work. Please enlighten me
with your valuable opinion as how to overcome this problem.

I'm not surprised that you've been confused by all the control positioning
options in ASP.NET. There is a lot of confusion about this, which is why I
wrote this article on the subject which will hopefully clear things up:
