   I am crafting an extension which uses an animation as an activity indicator — until now, a gif animation, with expected gif antialias bleeding. I’d like to change it to use an apng for mozillas which do support that, but stick to the gif for all prior (or later, should there be build flags to turn off the apng support). What is a good way of testing for apng support from the xpi (so I can set an “apng” class name on the xul button I want to augment in modern browsers)?

   I want the xpi to stay functional in firefox, flock and other platform siblings, so I’m hoping to be able to detect the feature rather than kludging up something from browser version numbers.

   tga2apng can be used to make small, optimized animations:

   I have tried, and failed, to get the animated image to work using my Sony Ericsson mobile browser NetFront. Which is a shame.
