Please add it back and post a reply here if you would like help centering it.

Getting my head around Firebug, it's helping greatly thank you. Still can't work out how to centre that damn search bar though, doh!

(I might have made things clearer if I had posted right after jtanna01's original reply, but I didn't see that reply before you did.)

I'm trying to use Firebug but I'm not sure how it identifies the relevant sections? I've tried clicking on the links with Firebug open but that just opens pages etc and doesn't seem to identify which items I need.

@mylesformby if you are not using Firebug yet, start using that to make your css editing easier.

.widget_search {<br /> margin-left: auto;<br /> margin-right: auto;<br /> text-align: center;<br /> }

Please note there is a dot before the word widget_search because it is a class in the code.

#footer-widgets {<br /> margin-left: auto;<br /> margin-right: auto;<br /> text-align: center;<br /> }

If it is something else you are asking about then you may need to expand your question for the WP staff to tackle it.
