Hi,

I just want to mention something that could be relevant to plasma:

Mozilla Firefox 1.5 beta supports the new canvas element that was
introduced with Max OS X dashboard. It is also implemented in later
versions of Safari. This element is now also specified in this spec
from WhatWG:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#dynamic 

These links gives some insight in what is possible with the new canvas element

http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Drawing_Graphics_with_Canvas
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Canvas_tutorial

What do you think of ecmascript + xhtml markup + canvas as a simple
way to develop  applets and simple widgets in plasma?

Claes
