I was playing around with the new canvas tag in HTML5 and I spotted a bug. I could not find any other reports of this happening, so I thought I should report it to someone. If this is not the right place to report a bug, I would greatly appreciate if you could point me in the right direction. After searching long and hard, this seemed like a good place to report this.

While I was experimenting with the canvas tag in HTML5, I created multiple canvas tags on one page. When I did this, all of my previous canvases stopped working. Only the newly created canvas worked.

I made a web page to put this to the test.  Here is the link to the page:

Click the button to create a new canvas tag (it will only add 3 canvases). Every time a new canvas is added, the previous ones go blank.

I tested this in Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera. The same thing happens in each browser.

I appreciate the time you've taken to read this letter and I would like to hear back from you regarding the status of this issue.

Whenever you create a new <canvas> element you recreate the previously inserted <canvas> elements as well by using innerHTML in the way you do. Since you then not paint on the recreated <canvas> elements they will be blank.
