Since you have specified additive="sum" on the "hourHand" animateTransform element that means that the animateTransform transform will get postmultiplied on the hourHand transform. Then since the "comment" in the script wasn't really treated as a comment it will set the time also. So a simple fix is: make the "comment" in the script a real comment, by using /* ... */ or // ... Either way worked fine for me, that is either using setCurrentTime or setting the transforms. If you do both however, then you get both. Also it won't work in IE/ASV because type="text/ecmaScript" has an uppercase S. Replacing that with "text/ecmascript" makes the script run fine. > The problem (I suspect), at least in IE and possibly Nokia, is that the > animateTransform that you've attached to the objects uses its own default > rotation angles (specified through markup) to override any attributes > associated with the rotation itself.

According to the SVG spec[1] the transform on the target element shouldn't get overwritten when additive="sum" is used in an animateTransform, but you can use additive="replace" to get that effect if you want. I think both ASV and Opera behaves this way, at least the simple examples in the spec looked the same when I tried them.
