Don't worry... be happy. :-) (that's a joke) http://www.contextis.com/resources/blog/webgl/faq/ <quote> “What responses have you had from the Browser vendors?” Context has reported these issues and other vulnerabilities to the Mozilla Security group who has raised a number of internal bug reports regarding the issues that we have found, including issues that we have not publicly disclosed. They have also passed the information onto Google for Chrome. The Mozilla Security Group has been very receptive to the issues that we have raised and have been very responsive to our concerns. </quote> Test link crashes FF 4.0.1. <https://cvs.khronos.org/svn/repos/registry/trunk/public/webgl/sdk/tests/extra/lots-of-polys-example.html> But SM 2.1 seems to survive the link. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
