That was actually the line in the default web2py layout.html.  I
removed the  and the text was centering ...

That will center the contents within the div.  However, the div 
auto-sizes to it's content unless you give it other style properties.  
You are assuming that your div is the full width of the browser window.


To do what you want, set two more styles on the div:
width: 100%;  /* Force the width to take up all possible space */
margin: 10px auto; /* Set the side margins to be equal and fill all 
possible space. */


You shouldn't need the  tags.  They only confuse the matter since 
you're doing direct formatting.
