You'd need to set the text-align:center on the header tag for it to work.

<header style="text-align:center;">
  <b>Header</b>
</header>

Try this:

<header style="text-align:center;">
    <b>Header</b>
</header>

Edit: I guess am the third one to post the exact same answer :D

<b> is an inline element and it wont support text-align: center. You may either make as a block element by applying display:block or apply text-align: center to the <header> tag

`center` is deprecated. You should avoid using it. See this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/center – Nisarg Shah Sep 19 '17 at 05:31
you said without css, but as you can see in the tag it has a style LOL! – Myco Claro Sep 19 '17 at 05:43
