I have a background of blue and a header and container, but I cant get the container to align in the center with the background either side. The centercontent is sitting along the bottom of the page. I am just starting this website from scratch and thought I could do it.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
