How to use svg filters with raphael js?

Question

i would like to know, which techniques should i use to apply svg filters to raphael paths?

I know that raphael tries to be as much cross browser with IE it can, but

Answer 1

I built a library to do this. You can do something like:

var paper = Raphael("test");
var circle = paper.circle(100, 100, 50, 50).attr({fill: "red", stroke: "black"});

circle.emboss();
