As an exercise in one of my classes, I've had students use SVG with JavaScript to create familiar HTML-like form elements: buttons, radio buttons, checkboxes, selects, text inputs, text areas, etc. (or at least to see how close then can get to the familiar behavior of those objects.) Managing the events associated with mouse activity is a good excercise.
One thing that none of them has had any luck with, and I frankly have no suggestions to help, is the <input type="file"> object. Is there anyway to allow the user to peruse local drive space and based on the choice of a file, modify the contents of a pure SVG document the way one would in HTML? I was about to declare the problem unsolvable, but thought I'd run it by you folks to see if someone has a clever workaround. ------------------------ Yahoo!
