Hi, I'm completely new to the Canvas API and so my first stop to find out more about it was here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/canvas
I've gone through some of the basics of drawing objects (rectangles and circles etc) and am starting to look into integrating images, but what I want to find out (before wasting too much time on learning Canvas) is whether it's good for animating filters such as 'glow' effects? Basically I've been asked by my boss to dynamically draw some circles on top of an image and to have these circles show 'glowing' edges. But I've no idea how to achieve this. I know there is SVG (with Raphael.js) as a nice abstraction for the language - and it maybe that SVG is what I should be using - let me know if so and I'll start investigating that instead. Just need some advice on whether Canvas can do what my boss has requested, and if not, what other JavaScript based solutions (e.g. SVG) are there to achieve this? Many thanks.
