Looks like some sort of FORMATTING is becoming embedded in it. I'd try using a basic text editor that wont add formatting to the content as for I think that is the problem. Unfortunately I am not a Apple user so I can only go on this formatting guess vs confirm. Oddly ENOUGH it has quotes elsewhere in the HTML so something strange is happening with just the CENTER portion.

On the IBM/PC side of computers using wordpad instead of notepad can cause similar ISSUES so notepad is best. I use Notepad++ for raw HTML and other coding, but Notepad++ hasnt been ported yet for Macs, however there is a similar alternative as shared here: http://decoding.wordpress.com/2010/03/20/textwrangler-best-alternative-to-notepad-for-mac-os-x/Is your PC set up for English?
What editor do you use for HTML?
I use the basic TextEdit that come with my mac, maybe I should use Wordpress?TextEdit isn't really an ideal editor for HTML as it supports stuff like fonts which you don't want for this.  For mac you may want to try something like TextWrangler.Thanks for you advise camerongray I am now using Text Wrangler and it's much better already :-)
