Re: JavaScript issues?

Hi Michael,

Yeah, this should work fine, assuming that the "xmlns" for SVG is part
of the "...", of course. ;-)

This may be the issue: Batik might not be ready for this yet. Please
see a relevant post [1] about a Rhino-related issue which ended up
with a change [2] in order to support Rhino versions above the
currently shipped (1.6R5). Note that using Rhino 1.7R1 and above
implies Java 1.5 support (as stated by Cameron [3] and in the Rhino
release notes [4]).


> Do I have to use the js.jar that comes with Batik?

Apparently not, but using any version above 1.6R7 might not work
without a bit of hacking (more testing is needed). Of course that, if
you manage to make Rhino 1.7R1+ work, even without any (Batik) code
changes, please share! ;-)

Hope this helps,
