SPANs are inline elements. Centering should only apply to block level
elements.

So - change your code from:

> <p>Your search for <em>xhtml</em> found the following documents (of 89
> documents searched).
> <br />
> <span style="text-align:center;">XHTML BOOK NOW OUT</span>
> <br />
> Displaying documents 11-20 of 44, with best matches first:</p>

to:

<p>Your search for <em>xhtml</em> found the following documents (of 89
documents searched).</p>

<p style="text-align:center;">XHTML BOOK NOW OUT</p>

<p>Displaying documents 11-20 of 44, with best matches first:</p>

And that should get the effect you want.
