I want to have the bravenet headlines thing and the today in history thing on my web page side by side. How do I do this, as I have tried all I can think off? The codes are below.
<!-- Start Bravenet.com Service Code -->
<!-- The following line of code must be on one line, it cannot wrap // -->
<div align="center"><script language="JavaScript" src="http://pub15.bravenet.com/news/headlines.php?usernum=1287988386&cpv=2">
</script></div>
<!-- End Bravenet.com Service Code -->

<div align="center"><script language="JavaScript" src="http://pub15.bravenet.com/history/remote.php?usernum=1287988386&cpv=2">
</script></div>
<!-- End Bravenet.com Service Code -->

Find the first <div> tag. Despite the align="center" being nonstandard, I wil ignore it. Add to this div:<div ... style="float:left;">The code would look like:<div style="float:left;"><script language="JavaScript" src="http://pub15.bravenet.com/news/headlines.php?usernum=1287988386&cpv=2"></script></div>
<div style="float:left;"><script language="JavaScript" src="http://pub15.bravenet.com/history/remote.php?usernum=1287988386&cpv=2"></script></div>That should do the trick. To center them, you might need another <div>, but I won't get into that until you reply.

Have you actually tried that? My understanding is that once you add the float:left;, the text-align:center; in the parent container is ignored.

My understanding is that once you add the float:left;, the text-align:center; in the parent container is ignored.That was actually the reason I didn't post that, as the problem ensued. As I was working on that, I had no time to edit my post. However, the response you have posted seems to be the solution I too arrived at. Actually, I just realized I have edited my post. Your quote comes from the post before it was tested. 'Twoud be appreciated if you'd care to remove the quote, but leave the point, as it served a purpose.

Done. ;)

I tried using it, but all I got was the first item show and an error message?!

I used the exact code in my first reply here. There existed no error, except the display was left aligned, not centered. If there was an error message, it is from the JavaScript linked to, not my code.

I tried it again but it still didn't work, saying something about a syntax error. Then when I tried it again, without changing anything for some reason it worked!
Would you be able to tell me how to get it centered?

My understanding is that once you add the float:left;, the text-align:center; in the parent container is ignored.I've found the reliable phpnovice to be correct once again. You might be able to render a way, but that would be for a CSS expert, not me.

I second that emotion. Until then, this table arrangement will do it:
