That worked in IE, not in firefox.

That is a namespace issue, make sure your SVG elements are in the proper namespace http://www.w3.org/2000/svg so that snippet you send should be corrected to > <response><g id="layer00"><rect width="463.91238" height="431.20969" > x="15" y="42" id="landschap0"></rect></g></response> <response><g xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"; id="layer00"><rect width="463.91238" height="431.20969" x="15" y="42" id="landschap0"></rect></g></response> and all your DOM creation calls should use e.g. > var group = svgdoc.createElement("g"); var group = svgdoc.createElementNS("http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";, "g"); > var rect = svgdoc.createElement("rect"); var rect = svgdoc.createElementNS("http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";, "rect") That should fix issues for Firefox/Mozilla. Note however that the W3C DOM wants you to use importNode to copy nodes from one document to another, thus if you receive some XML document and want to copy nodes from the received document to the SVG document you should use e.g. var svgdoc = document.embeds["svgmap"].getSVGDocument(); var svgrect = svgdoc.importNode(xml.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild, true); As for IE and Adobe SVG viewer, I have doubts that your approach will work there, if you use a toolkit in the HTML document receiving XML then it will build that received XML DOM probably with MSXML while you later want to insert nodes into the SVG DOM the Adobe viewer exposes. And moving/copying nodes from one DOM implementation to a completely different DOM implementation does usually not work. ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
