Notes
The <center> element defined by the W3C is a shorthand notation for <div align="center">. The strict version of HTML 4.01 does not include the <center> element.
The strict versions of HTML and XHTML do not include the center element, but it is easily imitated with the text-align CSS property.
HTML 3.2 does not support any attributes for this element.
