There is no XHTML 1.1 strict Doctype.

There is XHTML 1.1 ... which is mostly pointless as it lacks the "Can be
served as text/html profile", which makes it pretty much useless (goodbye
MSIE, goodbye Googlebot, etc).

There is XHTML 1.0 Strict ... which is also mostly pointless as Appendix C
is silly, and if you use it then you can no benefits over HTML 4.01, but a
couple of problems.

My guess is that your choice of Doctype is triggering standards mode in your
browser and text-align: center has stopped centring block content.
