I had the same project 2 years ago, .... after hours or works ... I was only able to view static SVG in a applet. I was told recently in this list that things have change since, therefore, I tryed again 2 months ago!
And it's always the same : - you have to add "ALL" batik's jar with your applet - you have to sign the jar - you have to give special permissions to your applet (modify java policy on the client !) and at the end .... only static SVG works ... I still had the famous "ecma/script" error. If someone has ever succeed, I thing this would be a tremendously good idea to post a fully operational sample/demo somewhere, and describe precisely what have to be done. I believe Java Web Start could be great. Thanks, Christophe.

Implementing an applet to display SVG is relatively simple: use the JSVGCanvas component. The first problem you are going to quickly discover is that Batik is dependent on Java 1.3 (and thus requires a JRE plug-in on the client side). The second problem is the large amount of dependencies for JSVGCanvas, requiring you to include practically the whole batik/lib directory in the download. None of this invalidates your decision though, using a Java is still infinitely preferrable to ActiveX (a la Adobe SVG Viewer). However, if there is no issue with installation Java 1.3+ why not look at Java Web Start ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
