Hi Alastair,
Thanks for the input. I figured as much with the id, but
getElementByName didn't work either. I was hoping that something would
work. I tried the childNodes and firstChild, but nothing works.
objet.childNodes.length returns 0, which appears to mean that the child
nodes under the use tag don't get recognized, rendering the approaches
below useless, no pun intended. My failure to get the use tags to work
would mean the difference between using 35,000 tags and 210,000 tags. I
have quite the incentive to make it work. Thanks.
var objet=evt.target;
alert(objet.childNodes.length);
var child = objet.firstChild;
i=0;
while(child != null){
childSibling = child.nextSibling;
alert(child.nodeType);
child = childSibling;
}
