text aligning does NOT work

[biffboy1126]

why?!

here is the code...

<?php
			$currentpage = basename($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED']); 
			$banner = '/edwards2/images/topbanner3.jpg';
			$bwidth = '800';
			echo "<img src=\"".$banner."\" width=\"".$bwidth."\">";
			$linkarray = array( 
    				"Home" => "index.php", 
    				"Issues" => "issues.php", 
    				"Biography" => "bio.php", 
  					"Voter Information" => "voter.php", 
    				"Contact" => "contactus.php" 
    				); 

			$width = '150';
			$align = '60';

			foreach ($linkarray as $key => $link) { 
			if ($currentpage == $link) { 
    			$style = "text-align: center;
							color: #000000;"; 
			} else { 
    			$style = "text-align: center;
							color: #003399;
							left-margin: 24px;"; 
			} 
echo "<td width=\"".$width."\"><a href=\"".$link."\" style=\"".$style."\" left-margin=\"".$align."\">".$key."</a></td>";  
}
		?>

yes there are things in there that are useless... im just so pissed right now its not worth it to remove them.

Basicly, what i need to do is make it so that the links are centered in their little boxes underneath my banner. The boxes line up w/ the banner and the links remain at the left, no matter what I try. Furthermore, how do I get the background in each box to change on mouse over? I can make the background of the text change color, but not the inside of the boxes.

Thanks in advance.

I don't see any JavaScript, so I assume it's a CSS problem. What's the HTML source looking like?

i think u shud be applying the style on <td> and not <a>. similarly the mouseover if applied for the <td> wud change the background of the boxes.
