EMERGENCY STEPS

Kick-starting The Blog
1. Refresh (F5) or Ctrl-F5
2. Clear cache (delete temporary Internet files) and cookies in Tools-Internet Options.
3. Add a question mark to the end of your blog's internet address in the address box and see if it will show the latest update. (Can also be done with other people's url's in the address window.)
4. Republish (if in classic Blogger)
5. Reboot
6. Log out and log back in again (may change to an untroubled server)
7. Change browser (IE, Firefox, others)

---Not necessary to do all of these at once!---

Blogger may make problems for some computers about accepting cookies, especially when you are using the new versions of Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers. Difficulties with accepting scripts may be caused by security systems, antivirus programs, firewalls, and some add-ons. Check all your settings.

You may need to change your browser settings, or to list www.blogger.com and blogger.com as "trusted sites" in your Internet Options-Security so that scripting can occur.

Use CSS To Align Header Text

Text-align: center/left/right

Header Alignment
Setting alignment for the header has to be done in the template. The first section below of CSS instructions (from my blog, "The Rat Squeaks") does various things including that it sets the blog title to be centered.

.Header h1 {
margin:0 0 .25em;
color:$titlecolor;
font: $pagetitlefont; font-variant: small-caps ;
text-align: center;
}


Description Alignment
Not far behind it comes this section for parameters of the Description, also setting the alignment to Center:

.Header .description {
margin:0;
max-width:700px;
line-height:1.8em;
text-transform:none;
text-align:center;
letter-spacing:.2em;
color:$titlecolor;
font: $blogDescriptionFont;
}

Your template may vary, so I can only give this example of where and how to find/place these CSS instructions. Use the exact formula if you are placing a new instruction there. Examples given below:
text-align:center;
text-align:left;
text-align:right;

END.

    Blogger is so full of quirks and glitches that I never know, but one thing we can check is whether you entered the code ABSOLUTELY correct. For instance, did you include the ";" after the "center"?

    It was an explorer/firefox problem. Now it works. Thank you!
