Hi James,

Like you, I am going for the namespace approach. However, I am trying to
find a simpler way that I can use for SVG. Unfortunately, the viewer I am
using as of now does not support certain aspects of text in SBG. For
instance, though it is legal for me to imbed a <desc> tag in a <text> tag,
the viewer will not speak. The manufacturor of the viewer has his own schema
which works nicely.

I am using a third party component to generate my SVG. I was hoping to find
a way around adapting to the manufacturor's schema but there is no help for
it. I will have to derive the structure of the SVG file and add the relevant
namespaces and elements.

Pranav

Subject: [svg-developers] Re: Title or desc tag in text tag?

  

Hi Pranav,
I asked a very similar question a few months ago about including MIDI info
in musical scores written in SVG. [1]

The answer I got lead to me using a custom namespace to include the temporal
info I needed. Its a much more flexible solution than just using the <title>
or <desc> tags.
My namespace [2] just contains MIDI info, but I'd be very interested in
hearing how you realize spoken text.

best,
James
