The SVG spec says how to do this at: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/extend.html#PrivateElementsAndAttribute Your allowed to add your own attributes. The best option is probably to add them under a seperate namespace. Your will have to define them in a internal DTD to make the file valid. The SVG# Viewer will not allow it otherwise, I'm not sure what Batik does. /niklasReceived on Tuesday, 17 December 2002 09:34:24 GMT
