javascript + HTML5 sketchpad

I'm trying to make a sketchpad using Processing.js. My code is not throwing any errors, yet I cannot even get the canvas to appear. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Please help.

Here is my code:

function sketchPad(processing) {
    processing.size(300,300);
    processing.strokeWeight(10);
    processing.frameRate(30);
    processing.background(100);
    processing.stroke(300);
    processing.smooth();
    var x = processing.mouseX;
    var prevX = 0;
    var y = processing.mouseY;
    var prevY = 0;

    function drawLine() {
        processing.line(prevX,x,prevY,y);

        prevX = processing.mouseX;
        prevY = processing.mouseY;
    }

    processing.draw = function() {
        if (processing.mousePressed == true && processing.mouseX > 0) {
            drawLine();
        }
    }

    var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas1');

    var processingInstance = new Processing(canvas, sketchPad);
}

This code does not produce any error, but at the same time nothing is appearing. Ideas?

You're not seeing the canvas because the call to display it needs to be outside of your sketchPad method.

function sketchPad(processing) {
    // Your code goes here...
}
var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas1');
var processingInstance = new Processing(canvas, sketchPad);
