HTML Canvas element implemented in Flash?

Question

Can the HTML 5 Canvas element be implemented in Flash to provide support for that element in older browsers?

ExplorerCanvas can be included on a web page to allow emulation of Canvas in IE using VML. Since this is an IE-only solution, I would like to know if a similar replacement could be done using Flash, giving support for Canvas to all browsers.

Answer 1

For older browsers (namely IE), you can use ExplorerCanvas: http://code.google.com/p/explorercanvas/, which simulates canvas in IE using SVG I think.
