I read about the canvas tag in HTML5, and always saw getContext('2d').
The parameter is '2d', so isn't there another possibility like '3d'?
And, how could you use that? I tried 3D before, but didn't really understand (due to a non-explaining tutorial). Any Tutorials?

getContext() method returns a drawing context on the canvas, or null if the context identifier is not supported, or the canvas has already been set to a different context mode.
The CanvasRenderingContext2D interface, part of the Canvas API, provides the 2D rendering context for the drawing surface of a <canvas> element. It is used for drawing shapes, text, images, and other objects.
As stated, you cannot do this. However you can put one canvas on top of another and draw to them separately.
There is a 3D context for canvas, but it is not called "3d", but WebGL ("webgl").

WebGL should be available in the most up-to-date versions of all browsers. Use:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <canvas id='c'></canvas> <script> var c = document.getElementById('c'); var gl = c.getContext('webgl') || c.getContext("experimental-webgl"); gl.clearColor(0,0,0.8,1); gl.clear(gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); </script> </body> </html> how could you use that?
