Drawing on the HTML canvas is to be done with JavaScript. Use the HTML DOM Method getElementById() and getContext() before drawing on the canvas. To draw a star in HTML, use the canvas element.
With canvas, use the lineTo() method to draw a star. The lineTo() method includes x and y parameter values, which positions the lines to help you in drawing.
