<P>
The CENTER tag is one of the first Netscape extensions. It is used to
indicate that large blocks of text should appear centered. In the Wilbur
standard, it is defined as an alias for &lt;<A HREF="../block/div.html">DIV</A> ALIGN=CENTER&gt;.
<P>
The tag is more widely supported than the <A HREF="../block/div.html">DIV</A> method, as it was
the first widely implemented Netscape extension to HTML 2.

  <H2>Notes:</H2>
<UL>

<LI>The CENTER tag is <STRONG>not</STRONG> text-level markup, so do
not use it to center single lines of text inside a paragraph or other
block element. It will introduce a new paragraph.
<LI>Older versions of Netscape treated CENTER as if it were text-level
markup, so it was rendered without a paragraph break there.
<LI>For better portability with browsers which do not support this
tag, use ALIGN=CENTER on headers and paragraphs if possible.
