User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_4; en-us) AppleWebKit/533.18.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0.2 Safari/533.18.5

Very strange (IE 7-like) aliased image scaling in Firefox 3.6. Lots of jaggies. Almost any other modern browser seems to be exhibiting smooth, bicubic image resampling. Not sure if this is a new thing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://isujay.com/temp/scaling.html
2. ???
3. Profit
Actual Results:  
See messed up (aliased, jaggy) image scaling.


Happens in both Windows XP and Windows 7 that I've tested. Firefox Mac seems to be fine.

Please retest with Firefox 4 beta6 or later.
Looks ok for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101104 Firefox/4.0b8pre SeaMonkey/2.1b2pre

I've talked to a few friends and they seem to have the same problem. I've tried it on two of my computers and one virtual machine as well. Same situation.
