Perhaps if you upgraded to 2.8 you might not have the problem. The blacklisted drivers are for WebGL, not HTML5. Here are mine: ==== Graphics Adapter DescriptionNVIDIA Corporation -- Quadro4 900 XGL/AGP/SSE2Driver Version1.5.8 NVIDIA 96.43.19 WebGL RendererBlocked for your graphics driver version. Try updating your graphics driver to version NVIDIA 257.21 or newer. GPU Accelerated Windows0. Blocked for your graphics driver version. Try updating your graphics driver to version NVIDIA 257.21 or newer. And from a WinXP with the same nVidia card: Graphics Adapter DescriptionNVIDIA Quadro4 900 XGLVendor ID0x10de Device ID0x0258Adapter RAMUnknownAdapter Driversnv4_dispDriver Version9.1.3.6Driver Date7-12-2006 WebGL Rendererfalse GPU Accelerated Windows0. Blocked for your graphics driver version. ==== And I can render the HTML5 just fine. I also have WinXP running in a VMWare virtual machine. That VM uses an SVG II 2D video driver, and I can view the HTML5 on that as well: WebGL RendererBlocked for your graphics card because of unresolved driver issues. GPU Accelerated Windows0. Blocked for your graphics card because of unresolved driver issues. So I'd recommend upgrading to 2.8. 2.8 resolved/fixed several HTML5 issues: http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.8/#new as did SeaMonkey 2.7: http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.7/changes > would never have blamed Mozilla if my video driver caused Fx or SM to crash > so I don't think Mozilla should arbitrarily placed video drivers older than > the date they chose on a black list as some very old drivers work fine with > HTML5 yet Mozilla put them on the black list.

It's never cause an issue with Firefox or SeaMonkey for me. You might try reinstalling to see if it is still giving you issues with the current version of Firefox (11) or SeaMonkey (2.8). ... _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
