    So nice :-).
    Good job!

    I assume it’s something with the shader in the Puls sample, but it made my screen flash like mad then the Nvidia driver said the OpenGL application had caused too many problems and had to be closed (latest Nvidia driver for an 8600GT and Windows 7), what it did render was buggy (blue and green squares) and it one only one triangle filling the top left to bottom right (rest was black)

    Other ones worked fine though, nice and snappy.

    I’m also having trouble with the Puls sample. My screen is going nuts with noise everywhere, and then everything freezes. I’m using Ubuntu 9.04 64bit.

    It worked on my Nvidia 72xx on-board-vga adapter, I updated FF’s omega32.dll, it worked. But when I ran it in Large mode it crashed Firefox and the Nvidia OpenGL NVogl32.dll file.

    So lovely:) Pulse on high / med mode keeps crashing ff though.

    Really cool. We’ll be playing “crysis-like” games inside our browsers in a couple of years… :)

    Metatunnel didn’t want to work for me at all, and Puls was very CPU-intensive, with less than 1 fps*, but the Escher-Droste effect was neat. (I would have liked to have been able to click on it to reverse the direction of zoom though.)

    *This on a RADEON X600, is that not new enough for this stuff?

    Hmm… This isn’t rendering directly to the screen, right? It’s rendering offscreen and then software-compositing, it’d appear. It’s a shame because framerates are so-so and cpu usage is extreme because of that. Not what I had hoped for, but oh well.

    Neil, on my Intel X3100 i had to remove the shader version to work.
    from
    var fragment_shader_source = “#version 120\n”
    to
    var fragment_shader_source = “”

    HI,
    I’m sorry, I cannot find the webgl.enabled_for_all_sites pref within my about:config.
    Should I add it? As a boolean, integer or string pref?
    I’ll appreciate you answering me as soon as you can to be able to try the new feature!

    Many thanks!
    Best regards,
    Gabriela

    all demos work perfectly on my macbook pro with GeForce 9400M / Firefox / Safari except for the Metatunnel in Safari.

    this is really cool, imagine the possibilities of that..

    I have 2 webgl applications at my website. One is an interactive version of Penrose Staircase Illusion like Ascending and Descending by M.C. Escher. The other is a 3 part visual investigation of the properties of Einstein’s special theory of relativity.
