*If specified, the <code>text</code> is centered within the box.
*If no color is specified for the text, it is displayed using the default style foreground color as prescribed by [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]]. For most users this is black.
* The optional parameter <code>|border=</code> will change the color of the outline box. The default is black.
