Hello, according to my precision animation test, firefox seems to have only an accuracy problem, available in all versions, from 2 up to 20. A current version of Chromium (using WebKit 537.31) as well as an old WebKit version (528.16) have similar accuracy problems (resulting only in a slighly different 'show'). There are worse bugs beyond accuracy problems in Squiggle or the old Adobe plugin. There was implemented a wrong formula in Opera 8, fixed in 9. Therefore nothing surprising that there are problems. Do you have suggestions, how to avoid accuracy problems in viewers with only a low calculation accuracy? To fix this, obviously they need to increase the accuracy of calculations in general. Low accuracy is often the reason for a wrong display (deviations larger than one device pixel as recommended for SVG tiny documents for example). Often authors can work around such problems, if they chose a value far away from a critical switch due to rounding issues. Olaf
