There seem to be multiple requests about this in the mailing lists [1] [2]. In experiments I've attempted to skip the security thing but wasn't (yet) successful. I've recently had a chat (at the SVG IRC channel [3]) with Cameron McCormack (one of the main developers) about the matter and a simple XMLHttpRequest (XHR) implementation was proposed - based in creating a bridge with the browser's native XHR object. Unfortunately, I don't expect having time in the next few weeks for more experiments which, whenever successful, will then be committed to the Wiki [4] and/or to the mailing list. :-) Want to help here? There's already a closely related thread [5] (at batik-dev [2]) which seems to be [6] the proper place to further develop this subject. > I see MANY comments saying that "Batik may be used to create an applet > viewer" but NO examples that are relevant to what I am trying to do > (AJAXify my document). You are right, I believe that more applet-based examples should be created so Batik can receive the attention it deserves! :-) Could you also give a hand here? ;-) [1] http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/mail.html#batik-users [2] http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/mail.html#batik-dev [3] irc://irc.freenode.net/svg [4] http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-batik/FrontPage [5] http://www.nabble.com/IE8-doesn%27t-do-SVG%2C-now-is-good-timing-for-Batik-to-fix-that-in-a-more-general-way-td15876210.html [6] http://www.nabble.com/Batik-Svg-for-web-td17652069.html#a17665296 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
