I'm testing a HTML5/Javascript application on an Android Motorola Xoom. I've got it to work correctly with Chrome, the default browser, and Opera. It partially works with Firefox, but the following are some issues:

1) Does not play short feedback sounds using the HTML 5 audio tag. Lengthening the size of these is a work around that fixes the problem. 2) Playing audio fires the onsuspend event after oncanplaythrough, which causes a lag in the playback. Replaying the same audio works fine, once it is cached. 3) Firefox does not support @font-face; in fact trying to use this crashes the browser, with a "something wrong with page" message. 4) Does not support draggable div tags using touch events, even after setting the draggable true attribute.

A temporary site for the application is below, but it is quite complex.It creates lessons for restoring indigenous languages and is part of the ACORNS project (http://cs.sou.edu/~harveyd/acorns/). I can provide some explanation if needed.

Sorry for the bugs, and thanks for reporting them! It would be great if could file a bug for each of the four problems above under the Firefox for Mobile ("Fennec Native") product, and attach test cases if you have them. Or if you'd prefer, let me know and I can file the bugs for you.

I think I'd prefer that you file them. I'm working on getting the application to work on Apple mobile devices, so it will be some time before I get back to Fennec.

Thanks for your response, though.
