To detect mouseover events for individual pixels with HTML5 Canvas we can create a custom event handler called handleMouseover that checks if the mouse coordinates match the coordinates of a drawn pixel HTML5 Canvas Pixel Mouseover Example Open in new window HTML var canvas=null var context = null var pixelArray = new Array function isMouseoverPixel pixel var

To create an image using HTML5 Canvas we can use the drawImage method which requires an image object and a destination point The destination point is relative to the top left corner of the image context HTML5 Canvas Image Example Open in new window window = function var canvas = document var context = canvas var destX = 69 var destY = 50 var

When HTML5 Canvas applications require multiple images it usually a good idea to load all of the images before drawing on the canvas To simplify the loading process it convenient to use an image loader function that takes in an object of image sources creates an object of images and then calls a user defined function whenever all of the images have loaded HTML5 Canvas Image Loader
