yup, that's exactly what I meant.  It's the justify tag I wasn't aware of.
I did of course know about the left, right and center.   It seems to work
fine in both NN and IE.  Don't know about older browsers though.

I'll probably use the stylesheets.  Makes the most sense as I'd want to use
it throughout the pages and the site.

Thanks for everyone's input!
