Ahem. If I set the text format control to "Plain Old Text", am I that wrong in expecting it to convert the necessary characters to their respective HTML entities?:)

Is the correct Doctype.
That is only a proper declaraion if your site has a DTD directory containing the xhtml1-transitional.dtd file in every web-accessible directory.

The correct Doctype looks like this:
(Or xhtml1-transitional, as appropriate).
I haven't checked this, but I wouldn't be surprised if IE doesn't recognise the *correct* Doctype, and reverts to quirks-mode when it sees it.
As for your issue with centering: if it doesn't work in both Mozilla and IE, perhaps it's your CSS that's in the wrong?
