Hello, Yes, FF3 supports patterns now, so does Opera9 and Safari. I really recommend not only testing with FF3, but also with Opera and Safari.
Yes, Opera supports HTML<->SVG communication. It should work the same as with FF and Safari. parseXML: there is a function called "serializeNode()" at http://www.carto.net/ papers/svg/resources/helper_functions.js This function works across all browsers an UAs, incl. ASV, Batik, Opera, Firefox and Safari. The argument is just a DOM-node, the result is a string containing the text representation of the DOM-node.
