I've tested this and it seems that svgObject.contentDocument is null if the SVG document being embeded using <object> is rendered using ASV. Also, when ASV is running in Mozilla it seems that it doesn't implement 'top' or 'parent'. I did say I don't use ASV in Mozilla. :-)
It looks like there's no way to communicate across the HTML-SVG boundary in Mozilla if you are using ASV to render the SVG. I can only suggest you try a Mozilla Firefox build with native SVG support. Unzip and run mozilla.exe from the following. ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/contrib/latest-trunk/firefox-win32-svg-GDI.zip Be sure to shutdown any currently running instances of Mozilla Firefox first including quickstart. Using this build you should then be able to use contentDocument and defaultView as I described. -Jonathan On Wed, 26 Jan 2005 17:05:35 -0000, tomilay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Thanks for that info.
