Firefox:

<g class="button" transform="translate(30,540)">
  <circle r="10" style="stroke: black; fill: darkred;"></circle>
  <text transform="translate(0,30)" style="text-anchor: middle">CAN</text>
</g>

Chrome:

<g class="button" transform="translate(30,540)">
  <circle r="10" style="stroke: black; fill: darkred;"></circle>
  <text transform="translate(0,30)" style="text-anchor: middle; font-size: 10px;">CAN</text>
</g>

Note the missing font-size: 10px; in Firefox. 🤔

http://rocs.hu-berlin.de/corona/interactives/event_horizon/eh_sg.js

buttons.append("text").text(function(d){return d.root}).style("text-anchor","middle")
    .attr("transform","translate(0,30)").style("font-size",10)

Guessing that if it was "10px" vs 10 this would work.

Here's where d3.js's style is defined:

https://github.com/d3/d3-selection/blob/v1.4.1/src/selection/style.js#L19

It seems that Blink and WebKit are happy to accept a unitless value for CSSStyleDeclaration.setProperty: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CSSStyleDeclaration/setProperty

[miketaylr]

When a number is passed as the value, jQuery will convert it to a string and add px to the end of that string. If the property requires units other than px, convert the value to a string and add the appropriate units before calling the method.

It seems like jQuery tried to pre-empt this difference, maybe.

I'm guessing Firefox bails at step 6 of https://drafts.csswg.org/cssom/#dom-cssstyledeclaration-setproperty

If component value list is null, then return.

I can't find any existing Bugzilla core bugs for this, but we should probably try outreach here -- the site is doing the wrong thing per-spec. They should just use "10px" instead of 10 and it will work for all browsers.

I sent an email to the contact noted on the page.
