Note that the events section in both the previous SVG 1.2 draft and the current SVG Tiny 1.2 draft are extremely confused as I've been pointing for quite some time now. Here in particular it confuses event categories with arguments for the createEvent eventType parameter. The latter are not event categories as defined in DOM Level 3 Events. >But with zoom, there is no event category. I think the best thing for >"zoom" is to define a new event category, "SVGEvent" (parallel with >"HTMLEvent"). If this suggestion is accepted, then there would need to be a >new "SVGEvent" section listed in the SVG DOM appendix. Note that you cannot use "HTMLEvent" as eventType parameter for the createEvent method. As I've pointed out before, using "HTMLEvent" in this sections makes no sense to me. Since SVG Tiny 1.2 does not support createEvent and all the related features, introduction of a new emtpy SVGEvent interface seems of little use (except of course that SVG 1.1 had such an empty interface aswell). -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
