RE: Demo app and SVG 1.2 comments

Hi Kevin,

That is excellent!

I broke it by clicking in the box above "Greens, SVG, Windows".  You
will also notice that when going over it with the mouse you see NaN and
#IND everywhwere.

I'm getting script errors in IE - safari may be swallowing these, I've
heard 
reports of the plugin on the mac doing so.

Well the first about the context menu is a request for a feature, as
that's 
not an SVG feature at all.

Internet explorer has a pluggable language, (I don't know of a php, but
perl 
python and more), everyone uses javascript, not because it's better, but

because it's ubiquitous.

It was in the last draft for raster images, I doubt there'll be a
procedure 
defined for defining a point and coluor for a vector image (vector
images 
don't have points, so therefore there's not a single colour)  I agree
that's 
a shame, but...

Jim.
