The canvas element is just a dynamic version of the img element - a fixed size raster image canvas. Additionally, it has a graphics API that can compete with GDI (in fact, it's in several ways superior), which is one of the things that were really missing from the original capabilities of JavaScript in the browser. That graphics API could have been placed on the img element instead, but that suggestion was shot down mainly because the canvas element has better semantic clarity and better fallback support. -- var Liorean = { abode: "[sigrotate][url]http://liorean.web-graphics.com/[/url]\|[url]http://codingforums.com/[/url]\|[url]http://web-graphics.com/[/url][/sigrotate]", profile: "[url]http://codingforums.com/member.php?u=5798[/url]"}; Loading...
