Correct. try ~list-style-type: lower-alpha;~ in your css to get lowercase
alphanumeric labels for an enumerated list (~<ol>~).

I would assume it's because there is no css for ~div.center~. Try (untested):

  div.center > p { text-align: center; }

Note that this will center each line, separately. To center the entire
paragraph as a block is more complex. This will do if if you specify the
paragraph width.

  div.center > p {
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    width: {X}em;
  }

See http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/center#viewport3 for a CSS3 (less
backward compatible) approach. that doesn't require setting the width of the
paragraph.
    
I usually just set a left margin or padding as opposed to trying to float
the block in the middle. (e.g. ~margin-left: 2em~.)
