How to centre an image on the page?

How do a centre an image (photo, GIF, whatever)? With text I just use the
centre function but can't do this for an image. I tried creating a table with
3 columns and pasting the image into the middle column. Didn't work. The
image always ends up on the left side of the page (or if it is in a column,
on the left side of the column).

Can anyone tell me how to horizontally centre an image?

Thank you for your consideration,
Doug

There a few ways for doing that. The simplest way is to apply center to
the element that contains the image.

If you put it in a table, select the table cell's properties (in FP
normal view) and apple horizontal alignment to center and vertical
aligment to top or middle.

If you put it betweein division tags, add align="center" in the opening
tag like this (in HTML view):

<div align="center">
stuff
</div>

If you use tables then you'd center the image in the cell but you also need
to center the table and cells on the page as well as to set the table to a
specific number pixels to better control it.
