Boris, Probably Ola was referring to foreignObject with an xlink:href? Of course, if the content is inline within the foreignObject, then you haven't cross document boundaries, just namespace boundaries, and with foreignObject often you have a different UA that acts as content handler. >>Several issues arise when you think about embedding >>xhtml into a foreignObject (focus navigation, event propagation, script >>access, etc).

I agree that we don't want to mess up CDF. Jon >-Boris
