I recommend to use the caption package. It provides features for justification, also for centering, such as

\usepackage[justification=centering]{caption}

It offers many features, just have a look at its comprehensive documentation.

Kottwit, for my long table captions, i'm using \newline to make some comments about the tables. But i want these start from left is that possible? this is caption \newline this is more explanation (should be left aligned.) is there a way to do it? – berkay Apr 19 '11 at 7:31

@berkay: Using \newline inside a paragraph which will be typeset centered is usually a bad idea. Better use \\ instead which should work under such conditions, too. – Axel Sommerfeldt Apr 21 '11 at 5:26
