In fact the ALIGN attribute for DIV is also deprecated in HTML 4.0.  It
simply means that support for it will gradually be phased out in the future
as support for CSS becomes more robust.  The problem with some things not
working as expected in some browsers has more to do with browsers not
always fully supporting the current HTML standard. :-)  As Cindy pointed
out, though, deprecated elements and attributes in HTML 4.0 are still
entirely valid and usable.  I usually use <center> when I code to HTML 4.0
Transitional, and it works fine.
