This is a known limitation of SVG. Apart from moving an object along a path, other properties can only be animated by linearly interpolating between a list of values (effectively, animating along a polyline). So the work around is as you have it: convert the bezier to a polyline approximation and use the vertices of the polyline as your z and y values list. -- Chris Lilley mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Chair, W3C SVG Working Group Member, W3C Technical Architecture Group ------------------------ Yahoo!
