Hi Cameron,

good to hear! I will test the implementation and provide feedback.

I have merged the anim branch back into the trunk now.  This should give
a nearly complete SMIL animation implementation.  There aren’t any
regressions for documents that have no animation, but there may still be
bugs with the animation stuff.  Note that the animation engine isn’t
started unless there is at least one animation element in the document
at the time it is loaded, so if you only add animation elements from
script then it won’t work yet.  All CSS properties are animatable, most
XML attributes are too.  One notable omission is that animating paint
server element attributes is not supported yet.
ok, this restriction already existed for scripting paint server element attributes.

Modifying attributes of animation elements while they are in the
document will not change the animation.  Removing the element, changing
the attribute, then reinserting it will work.  I believe this is
conformant, but I will have to dig deeper into the specs.
hm, this is sad. Both ASV and Opera support changing SMIL attributes from script and I also use this feature frequently. I can't find any text in the animation chapter of the spec that would tell an author that he can't modify SMIL attributes by script. It would be a restriction if I can't do this in Batik.

Please give it a try and file bug reports for any problems you find.

sure.

Thanks again for your work and congratulations on getting this into the trunk!

Andreas
