That was clueless, not unexpectedly considering the posting history.

That wasn't much better. You give advice on HTML in public but cannot even
distinguish between elements and tags. Moreover, using "center" as a class
name is basically as presentational as <center> or <div align="center">.
Actually the so-called deprecated markup alternatives are better because
they are more honest: the say, in HTML, what presentational effect is
desired, whereas class="center" assigns just a class name, with no meaning
defined in HTML, and not suggestive of _semantics_ to a human reader.
