Hi Gissur,
Here is a suggestion that may help:
Let's assume you have a "layer" or group of elements that you want
to send to the server. If you convert the elements to XML strings,
you may have to make a few minor adjustments so XML will not crash,
but it should work just dandy. (i.e. XML does not like xlink:href,
so you have to do a regular expression to change it for XML
transmission)
sendXML=svgString //---these are your elements as valid XML strings
var xmlFile = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
xmlFile.Open("POST", "saveToFile.asp", false);
xmlFile.Send(sendXML);
saveToFile.asp:
<OBJECT id="saveXML" progid="Msxml2.DOMDocument"
runat="Server"></OBJECT>
<%@ Language=jScript %>
<%
Response.Expires=-1000
saveXML.load(Request)
//--you now have a valid XML document at the server to do whatever
is needed to save/edit to an SVG file---
%>
The saveToFile.asp could save the xml elements at the server in an
XML file, or write a valid SVG document as a text file with .svg
extension.

is this: I created a web-service using Batik which rasterizes SVG

URL for the page that needs the rasterized file. No problems on that
end.

work my magic and send the output to points forward. Not a big deal.
What I can't figure out is how I can get a snapshop of the SVG file
the user is editing to a file on the server.

but I can't seem to make them work(I get success - but I don't think
I understand exacly what is going on - maybe some pointers on that

impressed.

(ALL my users run MSIE) also I'm not at all afraid of the potential
compatibility of using the ASV-specific API.
