I just played Adobe SVG viewer 3.02 and saw some nice demo in adobe site. Unfortuately, it doesn't support Firefox. In the current cairo development pace, it may take years to reach what Adobe SVG viewer have. I wish Adobe can come out a plugin for firefox.

Alex, the Adobe SVG plugin works perfectly well on Firefox. Although I believe you need some beta version for that. I can’t find the page I read it on at the moment, but in any case, I have it installed on my machine.
About the time to reach Adobe’s progress, I dunno about that, but I do know that native SVG support as opposed to a plugin will be a huge boost for SVG as a format. A friend of mine also has a site with a number of SVG images, and the Mozilla SVG renderer has no problems with them, so it’s doing quite well.

hi tor
i ve just downloaded the latest build,and im happy to see getSVGDocument implemented, and i applaud your decission to do so. there is one problem with the current build though, and im not sure to file a bug for that.
if you get a reference to an SVGElement and change an attribute, the value changes, but without any visual effect.
testcase1(inline SVG):

testcase2(using getSVGDocument):

hope thats not to much of a problem
thank you very much for everything you do for SVG and Mozilla !

jwatt wrote the GetSVGDocument support, not me. Both of the testcases seem to work fine here - you might want to recheck if you have the latest build. Bug 287424 was causing style changes to do nothing.
