"The Ultimate CSS Reference"


The vertical keyword bottom refers to the bottom of the element??™s padding box (it
corresponds to 100%). If only one keyword is specified, the horizontal position
equates to 50% (that is, 50% 100% or center bottom).
The following example illustrates how the keywords refer to their equivalent
percentage values:
background-position: left top; /* same as 0% 0% */
background-position: left center; /* same as 0% 50% */
background-position: left bottom; /* same as 0% 100% */
background-position: right top; /* same as 100% 0% */
background-position: right center; /* same as 100% 50% */
background-position: right bottom; /* same as 100% 100% */
background-position: center top; /* same as 50% 0% */
background-position: center center; /* same as 50% 50% */
background-position: center bottom; /* same as 50% 100% */
Negative length and percentage values are allowed. Their effect is to shift the image??™s
position outside the confines of the element it??™s placed in, although, of course, none
of the negative part of the image will be visible.
