The W3Schools site is great for any of this stuff. http://www.w3schools.com/

Centering things can get a bit tricky. For the most part, I just stopped
centering things. I do center elements sometimes though. So there are a
couple of ways to do this. I will list the legal way, then a way that works
most of the time, but I'm not sure how legal it is.

This is the legal and technical way, but you HAVE to include a WIDTH. You
can also substitute "margin: 0 auto" with "margin-left: auto; margin-right:
auto". That is the way the W3 example is, but I see this method more often.

<div style="margin: 0 auto; width:150px">
<input type="button" value="Button 1" />
<input typ="button" value="Button 2" />
</div>

This method might not be legal, but it seems to work for the most part. I
haven't had any problems at least.
<div style="text-align:center">
<input type="button" value="Button 1" />
<input typ="button" value="Button 2" />
</div>

With both methods you can take out the style attribute and place it in an
actual CSS file, but for a simple demo this seemed to be the easiest to
show.

I do feel a little better, I do not think I posted the easiest question
ever.
