This should work:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION check_center_changes() RETURNS
TRIGGER AS $center_changed$
BEGIN
INSERT INTO center_changed VALUES(new.c_cde, now());
RETURN NEW;
END;
$center_changed$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
CREATE TRIGGER center_changed
AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON center
FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE check_center_changes();
