Need help centering menu bar

[Andrew]

Take a look at http://www.hvffl.com/dev/table2.html . The menu bar at
the top is not centered in Firefox or IE. In Firefox, the menu bar is
making the overall page size too large to the point where a horizontal
scroll bar appears at the bottom of the browser.

Can anyone suggest what needs to be done to center the menu bar and
remove the scroll bar?

Thanks in advance.

First thing is the banner is just way too big and wide and that
will create design problems in itself.

You can't centre via margin: auto; but there are other ways,
sometimes, given a width, you can use margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

The pic text is not sharp, got the right dims on it?

It appears that you have at least two body tags. Remove the extra body tag/s, remove
the empty table set at 100%.

Give your document a Doctype & validate your page/fix the errors.

I could not once. But probably other factors were at work. But I
condition easily.

I will revisit a dissertation by DD on this issue. I recall an
interesting phrase that went something along the lines of
centering not being a trivial problem...

The banner at the top, unless it is sized incorrectly which is causing
the menu bar to become off-center, is irrelevant. I threw that together
very quickly and is not the final product. It will be replaced by a
single image bar shortly.
