The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How can I center a webpage using CSS

Asked by unisupport in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

Tags: css, center

I am new to CSS and just wanted to work with a basic CSS template and am having a problem getting the complete website to center inside my wrapper. Please feel free to critisize my code as I am a newbie and need to understand just how bad I am. Also if anyone could explain using the # sign before a item is declared, I imagime the ones without # are builtin functions. Here is the css listed first and then the HTML. I have them stored seperate on the server but am going to go forwared with a table based site until I am more comfortable with CSS.

body        {
                text-align: center;
                min-width: 750px; /* prevents Gehko based browsers from pushing images off the screen */
                }
 
wrapper  {
                width: 750px;
                margin: 0 auto;
                }

#header   {
                 background: #FFCC00;
                 width: 750px;
                 height: 200px;  
                 }
            
#leftmenu {
                 background: #FFFFCC;      
                 float: left;
                 width: 150px;
                 height: 500px;
                 }

#content  {
                 background: #FFFF99;
                 float: left;
                 width: 600px;
                 height: 500px;
                 }

#footer     {      
                 clear: left;
                 background: #FFCC00;
                 width: 750px;
                 height: 100px;
                 }
