Dear List, thank you very much for your solution. I only wanted to give you some clarifications.
1. I do not use css styles. I read Jonathan Watt's SVG authoring guidelines (http://jwatt.org/svg/authoring/). He recommands using SVG formatting attributes. The use of css does not solve the problem in creating a mouse event on an underlying element. 2. The solution from Jeff convinced me. My problem is in reality much more complicated. But I think I will associate the id of the underlaying element as an attribute with the overlaying elements. I can then in my javascript function use the event target and the attribute to change the color of the polygones in both groupes. 3. Before I posted my question on this forum I was looking for another solution. My idea was to create a mouse event artificially on the underlaying group if I move my mouse over an element of the overlaying group. I did not manage to write the code. Nobody proposed this solution ? I think I did a mistake. Thank you very much for your help!!!!
