it seems the mimeType is correct, might be an error on my side, but that 
part works now :-)

this also shows how to access svgs window object.
all functions and variables defined in the svg are members of that 
window object.
as for communicating SVG to HTML, you are right, but your figured that 
out yourself i see.

RE: [svg-developers] HTML form communication

Hi Holger,

Thanks for the info.  I'm implementing some of it right now.  However, I'm
not sure about all of it:

> 1. please correct the MimeType ! the svg file is send as 
> text/html but should be send as image/svg+xml 

Where is this done?  Not in the SVG, right?  I have a server application
that I produce svg from.  It sets the correct MimeType.  How do I do this
when, as in this example, I'm serving up from IIS?

Indeed.  This was done some type ago and when I updated it, I didn't notice
it was missing.

I didn't know that.  Thanks!

I see this as a way to access elements in the svg from within the html.
Does it provide access to call the svg's JS functions?  How about access
from the SVG to HTML JS?

> ...

No... I changed that.  I think you are seeing a commented line of JS.  I use
"top" in the only call out of svg.


Thanks *very* much for these insights.  As I mentioned in my original
response, I'd just figured these things out recently, so it's nice to get
them clarified and corrected here.  I'm implementing your suggestions /
corrections into my "real" app now.
