Hmm, not sure mozilla support is the right place, and I can't get 'matrix' working at all, since irc is no longer supported.

I want to use javascript to detect whether the browser has webp support. This is the recommended javascript technique... ``` function canUseWebP() {

   var elem = document.createElement('canvas');    if (!!(elem.getContext && elem.getContext('2d'))) {
       // was able or not to get WebP representation
       return elem.toDataURL('image/webp').indexOf('data:image/webp') == 0;
   }    // very old browser like IE 8, canvas not supported
   return false;

} ``` but elem.toDataURL('image/webp') returns a binary blob that has 'image/png' as a header.

Why does Firefox return 'image/png' when it should return 'image/webp'?

Judging from the following table, it looks like Firefox won't support 'image/webp' as a parameter of toDataURL() until the next release, Firefox 96:

Why do you need to test for WebP support using a script?
