Note that heading tags embed a line
break and can take an
optional alignment
parameter of LEFT, RIGHT,
or CENTER
w3c
Align : deprecated
Deprecated Example:
<H1 align="center">Heading</H1>
CSS Example:
<HEAD><TITLE>How to Align Headings</TITLE>
<STYLE type="text/css">
H1 { text-align: center}
</STYLE>

H1 declarations you can set the class attribute
on the element.
