Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.


    </div>





<div class="register_button_padding">

 <input type="submit" class="register_button" value="" tabindex="3">

Well, it depends on what you want to position, and where.

For centering an element horizontally, you can use:

elm {
   left: 0;right: 0;
   margin: 0 auto
   /** positioning could be set, depending on your needs **/
}

 

For centering an element horizontally and vertically:

In most browsers(if not all) the user-agent stylesheet applies some margins to the body and some elements on the document.

This will need to be reset on both elements you would like to use, e.g.: define it's margin on body.

 

body {
   margin: 0
}

elm {
   width: 200px;
   height: 200px;

   position: absolute;
   top: 0;left: 0;
   right: 0;bottom: 0;
   margin auto;

   /** also take into account borders and padding **/

   z-index: 1
}

 

To position an element left or right, without escaping the relativity of it's parent, you could use float.

 


elm {
      float: left

   /** or **/

   float: right
}
