Doug,
I didn't realize that getFirstChild() was a Adobe proprietary call thought I should have figured that out a while ago. One cavet on your advice though: >From http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/ecmascript-binding.html: getBBox() getCTM() getScreenCTM() getCurrentTime() getSVGDocument() getTotalLength() getNumberOfChars() getComputedTextLength() getStartTime() getCurrentTime() getSimpleDuration() These are all valid calls that are not Adobe proprietary. ;) --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Doug Schepers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, Dale- > > You really shouldn't use getters and setters (node.get*())...
