Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the only way it's even possible to highlight text is to make some makeshift functions that create <tspans> and change colors manually.
The more I look at the spec, it seems like these focus events seem to be associated with text even though they are on all primitives. Perhaps they are pseudo attributes that will be implemented later? I don't know... --- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, "Chris Peto" <svgdev@...> wrote: > > This brings up a good question.
