Google releasing Canvas for IE

March 27th, 2006

It seems like Google is getting ready to release an implementation of Canvas for Internet Explorer. It works by somehow converting canvas to VML. 

See a demo of canvascape working in Internet Explorer using Google's compatibility layer. 

From looking at the code, Google will be releasing canvas.js under the Apache License 2.0

Maybe I won't have to bother finishing the reflection.js implementation in Internet Explorer.
