Thanks for all your help but I still have one question, won't this return a Document type when what I really need is a SVGDocument? I know that you mentioned casting the document, but it seems that an explicit cast only throws a ClassCastException e.g. Document d = Util.string2Dom(xmlString); JSVGCanvas canvas = new JSVGCanvas(); canvas.setSVGDocument((SVGDocument)d);
The above throws a class cast exception. Is there some sort of conversion utility that I need to be using instead of an explicit cast?
