Hi, Wade, When you added new elements or attributes with different name space to the file, did you use internal DTD to extend SVG DTD? The SVG specification states it can be done with internal DTD. But I might have to extend it quite a lot and I do not want to give a big internal repetitive DTD to each file. Is there a way to do it with external DTD?
Thanks.
