    Hi All,


    What is the XHTML Code for the following decaprecated HTML codes.

    <center> Deprecated. Defines centered text
    <font> Deprecated. Defines text font, size, and color
    <u> Deprecated. Defines underlined text

    I want the XHTML code to use font, underline, and center alignment.

    Thank you if you help.

    <center>

    A replacement for center is to use CSS to apply the attribute to the element that needs it.

    example:

    Code:
    p {
    text-align: center;
}
    For <font> use css to apply font styling to your text, example:
    Code:
    p {
    font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;
    font-size: 14px;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: bold;
}
    <u>

    Don’t use this, because it underlines text and underline text is used for links.
    If you want to emphasize text it is better to use <em> or <strong>.


    If you still need to underline text anyway use CSS

    Code:
    p {
    text-decoration: underline;
}
