I've given no thought to styling, tidying the code, or cross-browser compatibility, but it has a couple of nice features:
- preview, allowing zooming in to interesting areas without waiting for whole thing to render
- configurable iteration count, to allow compromise between speed and accuracy - but more importantly allowing the interesting areas to be found quickly and then recalculate at a higher iteration count as needed
- ability to specify colour functions for the RGB components. All are functions of
i, which is the integer number of iterations completed before bailing out (will be equal to MAX_ITER if within the set itself). The functions should return a value in the range 0-255 - a position stack allowing unlimited 'back' operations
