.center, .center * {
text-align: center;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
If you are only concerned with the element's children, not all of its
descendants, it is better to write
.center, .center > * {
text-align: center;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
However, I warn you that this is not a reliable way of centering things,
as few browsers really understand 'auto' margins.

Both <center> and the 'align' attribute are deprecated. This
information is readily found in the HTML specification, and
you should check there before asking in the newsgroups.
Also, your questions are more suited to
comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html and
comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets than here.
