But as I try to increase the width of the canvas element beyond that width, the 2d object no longer appears. Code sample: <canvas id="mycanvas" style="position: absolute;" width="4000600" height="600">your browser does not support the canvas tag</canvas> <script type="text/javascript"> var canvas=document.getElementById('mycanvas'); var ctx=canvas.getContext('2d'); ctx.fillStyle='#FF0000'; ctx.fillRect(4000000,100,300,300); </script> Expected to see the 300X300px red square just to the left of the page's right edge (600 pixels to the left), but nothing appears. I'm new to this element, so I may be missing something, but this code works fine if the width of the CANVAS element is reduced, and the fillRect horizontal position is also reduced, both under 30,000 pixels. 35611 1 troy.brophy 2010-05-12 09:35:00 +0000 Added test site URL. 37806 2 ian 2010-08-24 23:18:26 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
