getElementById on a SVG object

Guillaume Rosset

7/27/2006 9:18:00 AM

Hi all, I would like to know if it is possible to retreive a SVG object
(in fact an image in a vector format that needs aa Adobe plugin to be
displayed) by writing something like

mySVGObject = ie.document.getElementById(SVGId);

?

Then if it works, is it possible to explore the SVG XML tree with the
same getElementById method (SVG image is represented as an XML file).

Thanks for your help.

You might get some answers on a Javascript or SVG forum.

Cheers

Look at the API for REXML, the XML parser that comes with Ruby.

http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/r...

For example

my_xml_dom_obj.elements.to_a( "//[@id=#{SVGId}]" ).first
