I've never done this in anything other than a toy app. I've seen basically two approaches to this kind of problem. * Build all of the SVG for each update. * Start with an SVG file with some initial display in place. Then, modify the SVG with eaach update. It sounds like you are mostly looking at the first approach. The second approach allows fast updates on even fairly complex displays. As I said, I've done both approaches with Batik. I've done quite a bit of the second approach with scripting. The XSLT approach is probably more useful for the first approach. G.
