					<td valign="top" colspan="2" class="description"><p>The <span class="literal">center</span> element was introduced by Netscape and
became widely used before the W3C-sanctioned <span class="literal">div</span>
element came into being. It is clear, even from the HTML 3.2
documentation, that the HTML working group was never fond of this
element. Momentum, however, carried the day, and this element found
its way into the HTML 3.2 specification. The element is deprecated in
HTML 4 in favor of the <span class="literal">div</span> element with a style
sheet rule of <span class="literal">text-align:center</span>. In lieu of style
sheets (but still deprecated in HTML 4), you can substitute a
<span class="literal">div</span> element with
<span class="literal">align="center"</span>.
</p><p>Content of a <span class="literal">center</span> element is aligned along an
axis that runs down the middle of the next outermost containing
elementusually the <span class="literal">body</span> or
<span class="literal">html</span> element.
