Displaying a 3D model in JavaScript/HTML5 [closed]

I am looking at rendering a 3D model in a browser. What tools should I use/what places should I look at?

I don't know what data format the model will be, I can likely request that data to formatted in any way I want.

I am looking at three.js but it seems that it needs WebGL to work, which appears to be unsupported in IE.

Does a "cross-browser compatible HTML 3d rendering engine" exists? :)

Can we use Javascript to render 3D shapes in Web browsers?

js is a library that we can use to render 3D graphics in the browser. The whole thing is in JavaScript, so with some logic you can add animation, interaction, or even turn it into a game. In this tutorial, we will go through a very simple example.
