Does anyone know how they have implemented it? Looking at the page source there is lots of javascript involved, as you would expect. Are they using the DOM or a Canvas that fills the screen?

If you look at the network traffic it's very odd -- not only are the formulas being evaluated on the server, the server is shipping back DOM strings, not values. So it appears they are doing rendering on the server as well as calculation.
