I am new to stylesheets and am using InterDev 6.0 to create them. I was
trying to use a <DIV> tag with the following properties :
    LEFT: 80px;
    POSITION: relative;
    TEXT-ALIGN: justify;
    WIDTH: 70%
I have had to use the Width property as otherwise the text goes off the side
of the screen and cannot be scrolled to as the scrollbars do not appear. Any
help would be much appreciated.

Since you're setting width to 70%, why not do the same with left? Set left
to 15%, and the DIV should be centered.

later,
