Andreas, just to be clear if I want to use dojo that means I would have to re-write all my existing SVG content using dojo commands - correct? That is I can not just take an existing SVG file and wrap it around dojo to have it render as VML in IE.
One of the reasons I decided to learn SVG a few years ago is that it was a W3C approved or recommended. That recommendation is now something like 5 years old and the browser with the largest market share (part of the W3C) does not render SVG. Adobe is dropping their viewer suppport down the road. What is your recommendation regarding the creation of SVG type content? I really like SVG and the ability to create any type of interactive or annimated content but the fact that it is being shunned by big dogs Adobe and Miscrosoft is not a god thing. Should I be looking at something else as an alternative (besides dojo or open Laszlo)? SVG may be part of Opera and Firefox but IE is the corporate standard where I work so I have to live with that constraint. --- In [email protected], "Andreas Neumann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > dojo - http://dojotoolkit.org/ - is a javascript library, 2D graphics > library, network interfaces and GUI library which renders to whatever > is available (SVG, VML, JS/raster, HTML) > > Openlaszlo - is a similar framework that can render to dynamic HTML > and Flash.
