The load event will happen. Take http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/struct.html#uriReferenceDefinition as an example, "URI references that directly or indirectly reference themselves are treated as invalid circular references. ... An invalid circular URI reference represents an error." The empty string treated as URI reference is always a same-document reference and therefore in- herently circular. JCD: From SVGT12 CR: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGMobile12/multimedia.html#VideoElement xlink:href = "<XMLRI>"     An IRI reference. An empty attribute value (xlink:href="") disables rendering of the element...   JCD: again, you lost me: my POV is that of the content. Can I design the content so that it can react to the end of the recording, e.g. by stopping an animation ? I can see little difference between linking a media element to some camera's video stream and linking it to any other video stream. Why would the recording even end here? The user could switch the camera back on, how would that fit into your model? JCD: the difference is: for any non-live video stream, you know the length at the beginning, so would provide a length in all progress events. For a live recording, you have no idea. Dealing with switching the camera back on is not included in my use case, since it just means another recording session. I do not have a model. WebAPI seems to have a model which looks insufficient to me for the use case mentionned. Best regards JC -- Jean-Claude Dufourd - Chief Scientist, Streamezzo 21, av.
