Dear Firefox Community ... I have made an html5 canvas animation using javascript which runs absolutely fine in Chrome , but grinds to a halt (and essentially crashes) in the newest (and older) versions of firefox. This is the first time an animation of mine has not worked in Firefox and I suspect it has something to do with the way I have used the "createImageData" keyword? Whether it is a bug, or bad coding on my part (but works in Chrome?) it would be interesting to know either way! You can find it at: http://www.mpklein.co.uk/filter/diffraction2.html Many thanks in advance.

A good place to ask questions and advice about web development is at the mozillaZine Web Development/Standards Evangelism forum.
The helpers at that forum are more knowledgeable about web development issues.
You need to register at the mozillaZine forum site in order to post at that forum.

Thank you

I have now posted my query there and already had a very useful reply (it could be solved by altering my code)
