Hi Robert,
Where is getElementByPoint documented? I went looking in http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/struct.html#DOMInterfaces for it but didn't find it there. On that topic, are there illustrations in the test suite anywhere for those methods? Or is there an inventory of which browsers support them (Jeff Schiller's chart is derived, maybe, from an earlier test suite than http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20110816/harness/htmlObjectApproved/inde x.html where some of those methods seem to be experimented with)?

(In SVG, this shouldn't be restricted to paths, of course.) document.getElementFromPoint will tell you whether a point is inside an element. Best regards Robert.
