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 <DIV ALIGN=CENTER>.

The tag is more widely supported than the DIV method, as it was the first widely implemented Netscape extension to HTML 2.

Notes:

The CENTER tag is not 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.
Older versions of Netscape treated CENTER as if it were text-level markup, so it was rendered without a paragraph break there.
For better portability with browsers which do not support this tag, use ALIGN=CENTER on headers and paragraphs if possible.
