Use
Raphaël is used by first creating an instance of the Raphaël object, which manages the creation of the canvas. The following examples create a canvas that is 320 pixels wide and 200 pixels high:
// top left of canvas at the viewport's 10,50 coordinate
var r = Raphael(10, 50, 320, 200);
// top left of canvas at the top left corner of the #example element (in elements where dir="ltr")
var r = Raphael(document.getElementById("example"), 320, 200);
// same as above
var r = Raphael("example", 320, 200);
Once the Raphaël object has been instantiated, its various drawing, resizing and animation methods may called to build up a vector graphic.
Usage
Raphaël is used by the Evri widget to create cross-browser vector graphics. The widget is used on the Washington Post and the Times of London websites[1][2].
