How to use canvas in HTML5
The new HTML5 contains a new so-called canvas element. Many developers consider this element as an experienced developer element because the use of this element doesn’t only require HTML5 and CSS3 knowledge but also Javascript mastering. Many developers therefore ignore the canvas element while it for sure has an added value. The big benefit of the canvas element resides in the fact one can create items which previously could only be created by an embedded application like Adobe Flash. The items we are referring to are dynamic graphics (graphs, dynamic elements, balls, etc), online and offline games, cartoons, animations (clocks, slideshows, clouds, stars, etc) and interactive video and audio. If you decide to start developing canvas elements we would strongly advise you to consult some canvas element manuals by performing a Google search. You will be overwhelmed by hundreds or even thousands of different manuals. It is of major importance though to first improve your Javascript knowledge.
