You seem to be confusing two things. First, SVGTimer is not a date/time interface, those are horrendously painful to design and I'm sure happy we didn't try that for SVG. SVGTimer is meant to be the standard replacement for the age-old setInterval() and friends, ie it's there to get async timed events. The de facto ones suffer from drawbacks that SVGTimer attempts to address. -- Robin Berjon ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Make a clean sweep of pop-up ads.
