html canvas firefox HTML

I'm having a hard time understanding I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I'm experiencing an scenario where my `<canvas>` element renders correctly in Chrome but fails to display anything in Firefox... The canvas is supposed to draw a simple rectangle using the following code snippet: ```html <canvas id='myCanvas' width='200' height='200'></canvas> <script> const canvas = document.getElementById('myCanvas'); const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d'); ctx.fillStyle = 'blue'; ctx.fillRect(10, 10, 150, 100); </script> ``` In Chrome, this displays a blue rectangle as expected, but when I load the same HTML in Firefox, the canvas appears blank. I've checked the console for errors and there are none. I've also validated the HTML and ensured that the canvas dimensions are correctly set. I tried adding `ctx.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);` before drawing the rectangle to see if that makes a difference, but it still doesn't render in Firefox. I even disabled any potential add-ons that might affect canvas rendering. I'm using Firefox version 106.0 and I checked my Chrome version which is 106.0 as well, so they should be on the same baseline. Is there an scenario with how the canvas context is being initialized or a potential compatibility question with some specific settings in Firefox? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
