Well, http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-CSS-potential#id05684046681 this is not exactly a new idea, but the CSS Working Group is not really quick, and neither are browser developers, to pick up such features, and SVG imple- mentations do not appear to be on the upgrade fast track either. Given that the Working Group seems to plan for SVG 2 being (feature-) complete in half a year from now, that does not seem to be a notable issue at the moment. >I have a question about the name <solidColor>, though, since it's camel >case.

(You would probably attract more attention to this question with a sepa- rate thread with a relevant subject line.) -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Am Badedeich 7 · Telefon: +49(0)160/4415681 · http://www.bjoernsworld.de 25899 Dagebüll · PGP Pub.
