A common problem with Joomla 1.5 is centering banners placed in the left or on the right side.
We create a new banner from COMPONENTS -> BANNER , the banner is displayed but never centered.
The solution to this problem is editing the file modules/mod_banners/tmpl/default.php : we need to tell Joomla to center each element.

You must edit this portion of the file

foreach($list as $item) :
?><div class=”banneritem<?php echo $params->get( ‘moduleclass_sfx’ ) ?>”><?php
echo modBannersHelper::renderBanner($params, $item);
?><div class=”clr”></div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>

and we must add the <center> … </center> directive, thus having:

foreach($list as $item) :
?><center><div class=”banneritem<?php echo $params->get( ‘moduleclass_sfx’ ) ?>”><?php
echo modBannersHelper::renderBanner($params, $item);
?><div class=”clr”></div>
</div></center>
<?php endforeach; ?>

Save the file and exit, it should work fine
