Hi Robert,

	Of course to be fair to you and my previous email, the sentence
in the spec:

"When the geometry of the applicable element has no width or height
and objectBoundingBox is specified, then the given effect (e.g., a
gradient or a filter) will be ignored."

	does mean that the gradient should turn off in the horiztonal/
vertical line case which IMHO is completely broken.

	Time to experiment with animation, I expect.

Cheers,
Alex
