Yes, the reason I didn't do that is that my attempts to redefine the src of
the embed the way you suggest didn't work in either IE or Opera. I was doing
virtually the same thing 'til I decided to I removeand rebuilt the embed
with a different source to get it to work in IE, but it still didn't work in
Opera. It had the same browser dependency if I used innerHTML of a div tag
containing the embed as well.
var em = document.getElementById("SS"); //"SS" is the id of the embed tag
var parent = em.parentElement;
parent.removeChild(em);
var E=document.createElement('embed')
E.setAttribute("src", filename)
E.setAttribute("id", "SS");
In short I can't figure any way to redefine the src of an embed that works
in either FF or Opera.
Thanks for your answer to question two as well -- the SVG may not have
script -- so it looks like a timeout that waits until the document is
present will have to do. I was really hoping for a method associated with
the getSVGDocument() that would tell me the status of its load, sort of like
an AJAX-like asynchronous thingy.
Cheers,
David
