I understand that much. What I don't understand is why was this implemented as a new element. Shouldn't it be an Object? From looking at the spec, it seems to pretty much replicates the capabilities of SVG, but using JavaScript instead of markup. Why not just use SVG, and use JavaScript +

The rendering you're seeing is because the body of the page has zero height (a quirks mode behaviour, I suspect). Firefox isn't ignoring the second center at all. Simply typing this into the address bar fixes your layout:

i don't think it actually ignores the second center... it just reads your body's height as 0px. Notice that if you have 'center top' it shows all of your background image, but with 'center center', it only shows half, as the background image has been vertically centered at 0px. as a quick test -
