Hi James,
Your example makes me want to dig up some similar examples of my own displaying cross browser inconsistencies in how <use> responds to events. In some cases evt.target seems to refer to the object from which the <use> had been cloned, in other cases to the clone itself. I have a vague and possibly imaginary memory of someone telling me that events are not supposed to work on <use> -- but usually when someone tells me that things aren't supposed to work the way we would want them to it is someone from Mozilla who has read the spec more literally that other folks, so this makes me think my memory is faulty, since you have this working in FF and not elsewhere. I know I have encountered the most paradoxical and unpleasant inconsistencies with <use> and events. Fortunately, <replicate> (the future replacement of <use>) doesn't seem to be plagued with such inconsistencies ;) <tease /> Cheers David From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of jamesd Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 6:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [svg-developers] Standard Hover Effect I am currently using the below to highlight a button using the use element. It works in Firefox, but not in Chrome or IE. Could someone show me the proper way to use this action. I need it to be flexible, meaning not a specific javascript, as I use it on different instances with different color fills. <use xlink:href="#go_fill" fill="#2500B8" onmouseover="evt.target.setAttribute('fill', '#3DFF3D');" onmouseout="evt.target.setAttribute('fill','#2500B8');"/> Thanks in advance.
