Hi, yes, as Chaals said, you were trying to use the SMIL (descriptive) version of setting attributes. This is perfectly fine, but you have to be aware that certain SVG viewers don't support SMIL, namely MozillaSVG/Firefox and Batik, though Batik is soon to support SMIL. The next planned release will support SMIL. Opera 9 and the Adobe viewers support SMIL.
If you want to use the scripted version (element.setAttributeNS()), have a look at our DOM tutorial: http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/manipulating_svg_with_dom_ecmascript/ index.shtml Doug Schepers also wrote a SMIL javascript libraries, which can handle a lot of the simpler SMIL cases in javascript: http://www.vectoreal.com/smilscript/ - this is intended to be used in viewers that don't yet support SMIL, such as MozillaSVG. Otherwise google for SMIL and SVG examples. Andreas --- In [email protected], "James C.
