Whip up an HTML page for a screen, include the canvas element in it, load it, and see what happens. I don't think this is a buzztouch issue so much as an iOS/Android issue, and what they choose to support in their webView. Very interested in the results!

I know canvas, but I have never worked with buzztouch before. Bill Comments Hi, It will probably take me a few days. I know canvas, but I have never worked with buzztouch before. Bill

For those of you that don't know what HTML5's Canvas does, it can be used to simulate Flash graphically, WITHOUT a Flash plugin. I'm working on a WYSIWYG editor for Canvas, that runs as an HTML5 file (using JavaScript and CSS3) and creates a final HTML5 file for what you create using the editor. HTML5's Canvas is supported by Firefox, Chrome and even Internet Destroyer 9. It would have been nice to port it to iPads and Android tablets. Thanks for trying Mark.
