Drawing circles with canvas

when I try draw this I do not see any solid circles our outlines..

 var ball = (function () {
            function ball(x, y) {
                this.color = "white";
                this.x = x;
                this.y = y;
                this.radius = Math.round(Math.random() * ball.MAX_RADIUS);
            }
            ball.MAX_RADIUS = 5;
            ball.prototype.draw = function (context) {
                context.fillStyle = "#ffffff";
                context.arc(this.x, this.y, this.radius, 0, 2 * Math.PI, false);
            };
            ball.prototype.update = function () {
            };
            return ball;
        })();

You were close!

You always have to do context.beginPath() before drawing and context.fill() to actually do the fill-draw.

BTW, your circle fill color is white, so you wouldn't be able to see it against a solid white background. I changed your fill color to red just for the test below...

Here is code:

$(function(){

    var canvas=document.getElementById("canvas");
    var ctx=canvas.getContext("2d");

     var ball = (function () {
                function ball(x, y) {
                    this.color = "white";
                    this.x = x;
                    this.y = y;
                    this.radius = Math.round(Math.random() * ball.MAX_RADIUS);
                }
                ball.MAX_RADIUS = 5;
                ball.prototype.draw = function (context) {
                    context.fillStyle = "red";
                    context.beginPath();
                    context.arc(this.x, this.y, this.radius, 0, 2 * Math.PI, false);
                    context.fill();
                };
                ball.prototype.update = function () {
                };
                return ball;
            })();

    var myNewBall=new ball(100,100);
    myNewBall.draw(ctx);

}); // end $(function(){});
