Website displays most of the items but not the interactive map while using Firefox but displays map in IE
OK, the websites URL is: https://www.wunderground.com/wundermap. When I use Firefox all the frames, ads and all the other stuff around the map is displayed just like it is in IE. The only problem is the interactive map. This is the map that will display all the PWSs (Personal Weather Stations), that normal people like me have that are connected to the internet, so that I (or anyone else) can see what the temperature and all other aspects of the current weather is like at that location. There seems to be a problem with it being displayed using Firefox that neither IE or Chrome seem to have (those two browsers display the interactive map with no problems). When you bring up the page in Firefox all you get is a blank blue screen where the interactive map should be. Don't know if the problem i with Firefox or with their website. It seems that the Wundermap company sold out to The Weather Channel about the ame time as your last update (which is when I first noticed the problem. The Weather Channels suggest that I just stop using Firefox and start using IE! That will never happen as I have seen to many problems with vulnerability using IE and will only use Firefox and have been since it's first release long long ago. If you find out it is not a problem with Firefox but their website, maybe you can get a hold of The Weather Channels web people and tell they what they need to do go get it to work with Firefox. I know that in the past there have been several other sites that did not work with Firefox as the site makers were using some web page creator that did not "port" to Firefox (at least that is what I was told by their support dept.) and soon after was fixed to work with Firefox. That is what I suggested to them, but as I stated above, their response was to just quit using Firefox.
Attached pictures are suppose to be of the same location on the map but as you can see, with Firefox-no map and with IE-map

Yes, I did. I found the area that said: "WebGL creation failed: * Refused to create WebGL2 context because of blacklist entry:". But didn't tell me where, or who blacklisted it! Or even why. And it doesn't tell me where to go to change something I don't even know where to look for! Also in that area, in Direct2D it told me: "Blocked for your graphics driver version mismatch between registry and DLL.) Well I don't what exactly caused that either since, as I already told you (as a group, and not in these exact words), there are no updates for my video driver. It is the way it came from HP and the way I bought it! HP has never put out an update for the drivers and never EVER has any other driver (even from the maker of the chips) ever created one that will work for one installed on this HP unit. so why it wouild not match between the Reg. and the DLL is beyond me.
Anyway, I a lighter note, It did start me searching again and found this on the web: https://www.sitepoint.com/firefox-enable-webgl-blacklisted-graphics-card/ That explained to me that it was actually Firefox that is blocking and Blacklisting my video drivers from running WebGL and Direct2D from working (which is apparently why it works just fine on MS IE but not on Firefox). I kind of figured something like this should have been common knowledge to guys like you and should have know the quick and simple fix explained on this website. after doing the 3 simple and little steps described on this link all is working perfectly......so, problem fixed
