Raphaël is a cross platform JavaScript library for outputting vector graphics in both standards compliant SVG (for Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer 9+ ...) and VML for older versions of Internet Explorer.

Raphaël is a JavaScript library that provides cross platform creation and manipulation of vector based graphics in either SVG or VML format. It supports, among other browsers, Firefox 3.0+, Chrome 5.0+, Safari 3.0+, and Internet Explorer 6.0+.

In addition to providing functions for the programmatic creation of vector graphics, Raphaël also provides a rich set of functions for adding interactivity to objects, transitioning state of an object (e.g. slowly changing color, rotation, etc), and complex animations of objects.
