Hi Jake,

Thanks for your reply.

But the svg has already loaded, because it's displayed, and I push a button to 
execute the code that is trying to get it. 

Plus, this line: var a = document.getElementById("dialSvg"); 
works well, the result is a HTMLEmbedElement. I checked what is defined in this 
HTMLEmbedElement, there is no contentDocument defined, thus, the following line:

var svgDoc = a.contentDocument; 
returns null. 

Any idea?

Many thanks
-Diana
