I guess it doesn't work in the latest nightly of WebKit?

It doesn't work on mainline Safari either.

Huh, sorry. It's something I threw together in a night, and only was tested in Firefox.

Nor under Chrome (3.0196). so 'twas not brillig at all, for me. The CA thingy worked though, and I see what you were trying to do.

It works in Opera. Very nicely. A bit of stuttering but overall a great presentation.

I think really what you have here Paul is an illustration of why javascript is the future, more than flash, more than silverlight. As browsers get faster and engines get faster, the web will move more toward js than anything else. It's a standard technology.

Very nice work.

Thanks!

I agree with you. Even though I'm also a flash developer, I'm looking forward to the day when I can get that level of performance out of javascript, and abandon proprietary plugins entirely.
