That will have poor performance in Firefox due to they way we currently implement <use>, which is to do an anonymous clone of the indicated subtree at the point of the <use>. Any modifications to the original content cause us to reclone the content. As you're setting an attribute on each <rect> inside the original content, we end up doing a lot of work that other implementations might avoid. ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
