61576 - cropping and centering seem to be mutually exclusive

Status: NEW

Should it be possible to have text centered (e.g. title element) and also have 
cropping enabled.

Have tried the text and title elements without success.

Reporter, as this bug stands right now, we can't do anything with it because
based on the information you have provided we can't figure out what the problem
is... Please read the bug writing guidelines at
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/bug-writing-guidelines.html

Then please provide the build id of Mozilla that you are using and a clear
description of the problem.  Given that you are complaining about Mozilla's
handling of some markup, attaching a testcase with an explanation of what the
expected behavior is and what the actual behavior is would be helpful.

Thanks for using Mozilla and reporting bugs!
