Hi All,
Sorry if this is OT - but I need some pointers to achieve the following:
An 'onclick' event on a SVG element changes the 'visibility' attribute
of a SVG bar graph (separate SVG file). I have pretty much figured out
how to do this part ('onclick' event triggers function in external
JavaScript file). But: the 'onclick' event can be triggered by any one
of the 9000+ SVG elements in my diagram, and the resulting bar graph
needs to be specific for the element that triggered it. The raw data
for the bars are stored in an external file (a database, or a text file
if db is not possible). I know how to use either JavaScript or Perl to
create the bargraph SVG from the raw data, but I have no idea how to
open and read the raw-data file from the JavaScript function that
receives the 'onclick' event (and element ID)! It appears that JS is
intentionally UNABLE to read local files! Are there any suggestions?
This only needs to work in IE7/ASV3.03, and only read from local file
system (the entire thing is not connected to a network). Also, the
primary SVG file is not (and can't be) embedded in (X)HTML.
If we can't figure it out, I will need to switch from Illustrator+SVG
to Expression+Silverlight+XAML. Uh-Oh..
Cheers, and many thanks in advance
klaus
