Hi, Jonathan- Please refer to my earlier post on this issue: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2008Jul/0174.html Also, you can follow the thread starting here for more information, including links to the revised wording in the spec: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-svg-wg/2008JulSep/0091.html If this doesn't meet your needs, let us know specifically where it needs work, and suggest specific remedies. The current working plan is that if no fallback content is provided for an element with no specified dimensions, nothing would be displayed. Note that for SVG Full, <use> does have 'width' and 'height' attributes.
