Capture Signature using HTML5 and iPad

Question

Anyone know how this can be done? Would you use a canvas object, svg, jQuery, etc?

Answer 1

A canvas element with some JavaScript would work great.

In fact, here's a jQuery plugin that already has this implemented.

Answer 2

Here is a quickly hacked up version of this using SVG I just did. Works well for me on my iPhone. Also works in a desktop browser using normal mouse events.
