Abstract

This document addresses errors in the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.1 Specification Recommendation published on 14 January 2003. It records all errors that, at the time of this document’s publication, have solutions that have been approved by the SVG Working Group.

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

This document lists all corrections for the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.1 Specification Recommendation that have been approved by the SVG Working Group.

Each erratum is classified as markup, editorial or substantive. These categories are defined as follows:

Markup
A change to the document markup, such as fixing a broken link or invalid markup.
Editorial
An editorial change or clarification that does not change the technical content of the specification.
Substantive
A change to the specification that may affect conformance.

These categories correspond to the first three correction classes in the W3C Process Document.

Each erratum has one of two statuses: proposed and normative. Proposed errata are those that have been accepted by the Working Group but which still need wider technical review and endorsement from the W3C. Normative errata are those that have been accepted by the Working Group and have had wider technical review and endorsement by the W3C. (See the Errata Management section of the W3C Process Document for details.)

Comments on the specification or these errata may be sent to www-svg@w3.org, which is publicly archived.

2. Normative corrections

There are currently no normative corrections.

3. Proposed corrections

Linking in a text environment
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/linking.html#Links
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/intro.html#TermContainerElement
Description It is not possible to express in a DTD the dynamic content model of an 'a' element, ie. the 'a' element takes on the content model of its parent. This was fixed in 1.2 Tiny by using Relax NG. Note that the description of container element does not allow graphical elements inside non-container elements. The text element is a non-container.
Resolution Content of an 'a' element must follow the content model of the parent.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/linking.html#Links, replace:

SVG provides an 'a' element, analogous to HTML's 'a' element, to indicate links (also known as hyperlinks or Web links). SVG uses XLink ([XLink]) for all link definitions. SVG 1.0 only requires that user agents support XLink's notion of simple links. Each simple link associates exactly two resources, one local and one remote, with an arc going from the former to the latter.

Filter subregion
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
Comment Tim Rowley
Description Clarify how the filter subregion is supposed to work.
Resolution Proposed: When a filter is applied to an element the output of the filter is what gets painted on the canvas. The filter region specifies the dimensions of the output and the filter primitive subregion can further restrict the region that the filter operates on.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/filters.html#FilterPrimitiveSubRegion, replace:

'feTile' references a previous filter primitive and then stitches the tiles together based on the x, y, width and height values of the referenced filter primitive in order to fill its own filter primitive subregion.

with:

'feTile' references a previous filter primitive and then stitches the tiles together based on the x, y, width and height values of the referenced filter primitive in order to fill its own filter primitive subregion.

The circle element in each one has a different filter applied, but with the same filter primitive subregion. The filter output should be limited to the filter primitive subregion, so you should never see the circles themselves, just the rects that make up the filter primitive subregion. The upper left rect shows an 'feFlood' with flood-opacity="75%" so the cross should be visible through the green rect in the middle. The lower left rect shows an 'feMerge' that merges SourceGraphic with FillPaint. Since the circle has fill-opacity="0.5" it will also be transparent so that the cross is visible through the green rect in the middle. The upper right rect shows an 'feBlend' that has mode="multiply". Since the circle in this case isn't transparent the result is totally opaque. The rect should be dark green and the cross should not be visible through it.
Clarify the effect of "to animations" and "by animations" for transforms
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
Reported by Cameron McCormack
Comment Cameron McCormack
Test case [1]
Description The behavior of "to animations" and "by animations" when using animateTransform is unclear.
Resolution Clarify that a "by animation" is equivalent to an additive animation from zero to the "by" value, where in particular the zero value for a scale transform is indeed 0. State that "to animations" for transforms are undefined. This behavior is in line with that defined in SVG Tiny 1.2.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/animate.html, replace:

If calcMode has the value paced, … … For a list of attributes and properties …

with:

The animation effect for 'animateTransform' is post-multiplied to the underlying value for additive 'animateTransform' animations (see below) instead of added to the underlying value, due to the specific behavior of 'animateTransform'. From-to, from-by and by animations are defined by SMIL to be equivalent to a corresponding values animations. See the Animation function values section of SMIL Animation ([SMILANIM], section 3.2.2). However, to animations are a mixture of additive and non-additive behavior, as described in the How from, to and by attributes affect additive behavior section of SMIL Animation ([SMILANIM], section 3.3.6). To animations provide specific functionality to get a smooth change from the underlying value to the 'to' attribute value, which conflicts mathematically with the requirement for additive transform animations to be post-multiplied. As a consequence, in SVG 1.1 the behavior of to animations for 'animateTransform' is undefined. Authors are suggested to use from-to, from-by, by or values animations to achieve any desired transform animation. If calcMode has the value paced, … … Note that the zero value used when performing a by animation with type="scale" is indeed 0. Thus, performing the following animation causes the rectangle to be invisible at time 0s (since the animated transform list value is 'scale(0)'), and be scaled back to its original size at time 5s (since the animated transform list value is 'scale(1)'): <rect width="100" height="100"> <animateTransform attributeName="transform" attributeType="XML" type="scale" by="1" dur="5s" fill="freeze"/> </rect> For a list of attributes and properties …

Capturing pointer-events with a zero opacity mask
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/interact.html#PointerEventsProperty
Description It's unclear whether if an element has a mask, pointer-events are still captured even in areas where the mask goes to zero opacity. Don't want nearly transparent and fully transparent to behave differently.
Resolution If an element has a mask, pointer-events are still captured even in areas where the mask goes to zero opacity.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/interact.html#PointerEventsProperty, insert:

16.6.1 Clipping paths, masking, and pointer events The effects of masking and clipping differ with respect to pointer-events. A clip path is a geometric boundary, and a given point is clearly either inside or outside that boundary; thus, pointer events must be captured normally over the rendered areas of a clipped element, but must not be captured over the clipped areas, as described in the definition of clipping paths. By contrast, a mask (like a filter) is not a binary transition, but a pixel operation, and different behavior for fully transparent and almost-but-not-fully- transparent may be confusingly arbitrary; as a consequence, for elements with a mask applied, pointer-events must still be captured even in areas where the mask goes to zero opacity. If an author wishes to achieve an effect where the transparent parts of a mask allow pointer-events to pass to an element below, a combination of masking and clipping may be used.

Test case [1]
Description It is unclear whether the bounding-box of an object should take into account a clip-path on that object.

Propagation of rotate in text
Status Proposed

In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/text.html#TSpanElement
Test case [1]
Description In SVG Full 1.1, the description of tspan explicitly says that rotate does not propagate to exisiting characters when there are more characters than rotation values. However, subsequent text following the attribute description implies that it does. This errata item should correct the description of the rotate attribute in tspan and define the exact behavior.
Resolution We will clarify the propagation of character rotation values, and include an example that demonstrates this.

If more characters are provided than <number>s, then for each of these extra characters: (a) if an ancestor 'text' or 'tspan' element specifies a supplemental rotation for the given character via a rotate attribute, then the given supplemental rotation is applied to the given character, else (b) no supplemental rotation occurs. If the attribute is not specified: (a) if an ancestor 'text' or 'tspan' element specifies a supplemental rotation for a given character via a rotate attribute, then the given supplemental rotation is applied to the given character (nearest ancestor has precedence), else (b) no supplemental rotation occurs.

with:

If more characters are provided than <number>s, then for each of these extra characters the rotation value specified by the last number must be used.

If there are more characters than <number>s speicified in the ancestor's rotate attribute, the for each of these extra characters the rotation value specified by the last number must be used.

A 'rotate' value is applied to the space that follows the text "Not", to the space in between the text in the 'child1' and 'child5' 'tspan' elements, and to the space before the text "rotation". The next current 'rotate' value specified is 45 followed by 55. The current 'rotate' value in the 'text' element is incremented as subsequent characters in the text of the child 'tspan' elements are processed. The next immediate 'tspan' element specifies rotate values for the text, hence the current 'rotate' value will change to the next value in the list (but is not used) as each character is processed until the last value of 55 degrees is reached. The last 'rotate' value of 55 degrees will be applied to all the characters in the text "rotation". Rotation of the orange text inside the "child1" 'tspan' element: The 'rotate' value will rotate the first 4 characters in the text "all characters " by -10, -20, -30 and -40 respectively. The last 'rotate' value of -40 becomes the current 'rotate' value and will be applied to all subsequent characters in the 'tspan' element and to any child 'tspan' elements that do not specify 'rotate' values. The "child4" 'tspan' element does not specify any 'rotate' values and thus uses the current 'rotate' of its ancestor ("child1" 'tspan' element). All the characters in the text "text" specified within the "child4" 'tspan' element will be rotated by -40 degrees. The last 'rotate' value of -40 degrees will be applied to all the characters in the text "have a". A 'rotate' value is applied to the space in between the text in the "child2" and "child4" 'tspan' elements, and to the space before the text "have a". Rotation of the yellow text inside the "child2" 'tspan' element: The 'rotate' value will rotate the characters in the (yellow) text "in " by 70, 60, and 50 degrees respectively. A 'rotate' value is applied to the space that follows the text "in". There are more 'rotate' values specified than characters, thus the additional 'rotate' values will be applied to the "child3" 'tspan' element which doesn’t specified any 'rotate' values. The characters in the text "the" specified within the "child3" 'tspan' element will be rotated 40, 30 and 20 degrees respectively. Rotation of the blue text inside the "child5" 'tspan' element: The 'rotate' value will rotate all the characters in text "specified" by -10 degrees. Only one 'rotate' value is specified and is thus applied to all characters in the 'tspan' element. Character rotation diagram for Example tspan05

An SVG fragment identifier can come in three forms: Shorthand bare name form of addressing (e.g., MyDrawing.svg#MyView). This form of addressing, which allows addressing an SVG element by its ID, is compatible with the fragment addressing mechanism for older versions of HTML and the shorthand bare name formulation in "XML Pointer Language (XPointer)" [XPTR]. (The bare name form of addressing #MyView is equivalent to the XPointer formulation #xpointer(id('MyView')).) XPointer-compatible ID reference (e.g., MyDrawing.svg#xpointer(id('MyView'))). This form of addressing, which also allows addressing an SVG element by its ID, is compatible with "XML Pointer Language (XPointer)" [XPTR] syntax and the XPath syntax for referencing IDs. SVG view specification (e.g., MyDrawing.svg#svgView(viewBox(0,200,1000,1000))). This form of addressing specifies the desired view of the document (e.g., the region of the document to view, the initial zoom level) completely within the SVG fragment specification. The contents of the SVG view specification are the five parameter specifications, viewBox(...), preserveAspectRatio(...), transform(...), zoomAndPan(...) and viewTarget(...), whose parameters have the same meaning as the corresponding attributes on a 'view' element, or, in the case of transform(...), the same meaning as the corresponding attribute has on a 'g' element). An SVG fragment identifier is defined as follows: SVGFragmentIdentifier ::= BareName | XPointerIDRef | SVGViewSpec BareName ::= XML_Name SVGViewSpec ::= 'svgView(' SVGViewAttributes ')' SVGViewAttributes ::= SVGViewAttribute | SVGViewAttribute ';' SVGViewAttributes SVGViewAttribute ::= viewBoxSpec | preserveAspectRatioSpec | transformSpec | zoomAndPanSpec | viewTargetSpec viewBoxSpec ::= 'viewBox(' ViewBoxParams ')' preserveAspectRatioSpec = 'preserveAspectRatio(' AspectParams ')' transformSpec ::= 'transform(' TransformParams ')' zoomAndPanSpec ::= 'zoomAndPan(' ZoomAndPanParams ')' viewTargetSpec ::= 'viewTarget(' ViewTargetParams ')' where: XPointerIDRef conforms to the rules for referencing IDs in XPointer (see [XPTR] and XPath syntax for referencing IDs). For example, xpointer(id('MyView')). ViewBoxParams corresponds to the parameter values for the viewBox attribute on the 'view' element. For example, viewBox(0,0,200,200). AspectParams corresponds to the parameter values for the preserveAspectRatio attribute on the 'view' element. For example, preserveAspectRatio(xMidYMid). TransformParams corresponds to the parameter values for the transform attribute that is available on many elements. For example, transform(scale(5)). ZoomAndPanParams corresponds to the parameter values for the zoomAndPan attribute on the 'view' element. For example, zoomAndPan(magnify). ViewTargetParams corresponds to the parameter values for the viewTarget attribute on the 'view' element. For example, viewTarget(MyElementID). Spaces are not allowed in fragment specifications; thus, commas are used to separate numeric values within an SVG view specification (e.g., #svgView(viewBox(0,0,200,200))) and semicolons are used to separate attributes (e.g., #svgView(viewBox(0,0,200,200);preserveAspectRatio(none))). When a source document performs a link into an SVG document via an HTML [HTML4] anchor element (i.e., <a href=...> element in HTML) or an XLink specification [XLINK], then the SVG fragment identifier specifies the initial view into the SVG document, as follows: If no SVG fragment identifier is provided (e.g, the specified URI did not contain a "#" character, such as MyDrawing.svg), then the initial view into the SVG document is established using the view specification attributes (i.e., viewBox, etc.) on the outermost 'svg' element. If the SVG fragment identifier addresses a 'view' element within an SVG document (e.g., MyDrawing.svg#MyView or MyDrawing.svg#xpointer(id('MyView'))) then the closest ancestor 'svg' element is displayed in the viewport. Any view specification attributes included on the given 'view' element override the corresponding view specification attributes on the closest ancestor 'svg' element. If the SVG fragment identifier addresses specific SVG view (e.g., MyDrawing.svg#svgView(viewBox(0,200,1000,1000))), then the document fragment defined by the closest ancestor 'svg' element is displayed in the viewport using the SVG view specification provided by the SVG fragment identifier. If the SVG fragment identifier addresses any element other than a 'view' element, then the document defined by the closest ancestor 'svg' element is displayed in the viewport using the view specification attributes on that 'svg' element.

A DOM application can use the hasFeature method of the DOMImplementation interface to verify that the interfaces listed in this section are supported. The list of available interfaces is provided in section Feature strings for the hasFeature method call. When an object is accessed via the SVG DOM that hasn't been specified in the document, e.g. x.baseVal and the 'x' attribute was not provided, a corresponding SVG DOM object is created and initialized with a value that is equivalent to the value used in rendering when the attribute was not provided. The returned object does not affect rendering until it is modified for the first time. After the first modification the object becomes live, meaning that any modifications made to the corresponding attribute are immediately reflected in the object. Note that for some attributes it may be hard to find a good initial value: textLength Depends on the length of the text. The value is set to the computed length of the text, but it is not updated if the length of the text changes. filterRes Depends on what the filter is applied to. The value is therefore set to 0. x, y, dx, dy, rotate on SVGTextPositioningElement The value is the empty list.

SVGStringList string removal
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
Reported by Erik Dahlström
Description The SVGStringList interface says that if a certain string was in an SVGStringList it must be removed from that list when inserted into another list. The type of object that SVGStringList contains is DOMString, which is defined by DOM Core as a sequence of unsigned shorts. DOMString objects may come from any number of different places and are not tied to where they came from. All the other SVGxxxLists contain SVG DOM base objects, and the SVG DOM base objects provide ways to identify that they were in lists. SVGStringList on the contrary doesn't contain SVG DOM base objects but DOM Core base objects (DOMString) which makes it different from the other lists because the objects are low-level (core) objects which don't have the necessary information to say that an object was in a list.
Resolution SVGStringList does not remove inserted strings from previous lists.

The SVGTextContentElement interface is inherited by various text-related interfaces, such as SVGTextElement, SVGTSpanElement, SVGTRefElement, SVGAltGlyphElement and SVGTextPathElement. For the methods on this interface that refer to an index to a character or a number of characters, these references are to be interpreted as an index to a UTF-16 code unit or a number of UTF-16 code units, respectively. This is for consistency with DOM Level 2 Core, where methods on the CharacterData interface use UTF-16 code units as indexes and counts within the character data. Thus for example, if the text content of a 'text' element is a single non-BMP character, such as U+10000, then invoking getNumberOfChars on that element will return 2 since there are two UTF-16 code units (the surrogate pair) used to represent that one character.

Test case [1]
Description getNumberOfChars() is written in terms of Unicode characters, but it would be more consistent with other DOM methods to be in terms of UTF-16 codepoints. Also, it should be made clear that it is the number of UTF-16 codepoints for all characters that are available for rendering, not just those that are in the end rendered. For example, with textPath not all glyphs might be rendered when they fall off the end of the path.
Resolution getNumberOfChars() should return number of UTF-16 codepoints corresponding to all of the characters available for rendering. (There perhaps should be an additional method for querying whether a particular character is rendered or not.) (Edit 23 June 2008) The UTF-16 language has been removed from the changed text, since it is now redundant with that in the References to characters in SVGTextContentElement should be UTF-16 code units erratum.

ElementTimeControl interface

Category Substantive
Reported by Vincent Hardy
Comment Cameron McCormack
Description SVG 1.1 claims that the ElementTimeControl interface defined therein is copied from SMIL Animation. However, there are discrepancies between the definitions in SMIL Animation and those in SVG 1.1. In addition, SVG 1.1 has a version of the ElementTimeControl Java interface copied from SMIL Animation, but with the package changed to org.w3c.dom.svg. The package should really be org.w3c.dom.smil, as in SMIL Animation, so it would be better to just have a reference to SMIL Animation rather than duplicated here. Note that the Java bindings zip file doesn't contain this SMIL-related interface, so no change is needed there.
Resolution The description of the ElementTimeControl interface should be synchronized with that in SMIL Animation plus some changes (to fix errors in the IDL that say the four methods return booleans, which should actually be voids). Those changes would also bring the interface in to line with the SMIL 3 specification. The inline Java interface should also be replaced with a reference to the one in SMIL Animation.

[the entire Interface ElementTimeControl subsection]

with:

SMIL Animation supports several methods for controlling the behavior of animation: beginElement(), beginElementAt(), endElement(), and endElementAt(). These methods are used to begin and end the active duration of an element. Authors can (but are not required to) declare the timing to respond to the DOM using the following syntax: <animate begin="indefinite" end="indefinite" .../> If a DOM method call is made to begin or end the element (using beginElement(), beginElementAt(), endElement() or endElementAt()), each method call creates a single instance time (in the appropriate instance times list). These times are then interpreted as part of the semantics of lists of times, as described in Evaluation of begin and end time lists. The instance time associated with a beginElement() or endElement() call is the current presentation time at the time of the DOM method call. The instance time associated with a beginElementAt() or endElementAt() call is the current presentation time at the time of the DOM method call, plus or minus the specified offset. Note that beginElement() is subject to the restart attribute in the same manner that event-based begin timing is. Refer also to SMIL Animation: Restarting animation. The expectation of the following interface is that an instance of the ElementTimeControl interface can be obtained by using binding-specific casting methods on an instance of an animate element. A DOM application can use the hasFeature method of the DOMImplementation interface to determine whether the ElementTimeControl interface is supported or not. The feature string for this interface is "TimeControl". IDL Definition interface ElementTimeControl { void beginElement(); void beginElementAt(in float offset); void endElement(); void endElement(in float offset); } Methods beginElement Creates a begin instance time for the current time. The new instance time is added to the begin instance times list. This is equivalent to beginElementAt(0). No Parameters No Return Value No Exceptions beginElementAt Creates a begin instance time for the current time plus the specified offset. The new instance time is added to the begin instance times list. No Parameters in float offset The offset from the current document time, in seconds, at which to begin the element. No Return Value No Exceptions endElement Creates an end instance time for the current time. The new instance time is added to the end instance times list. This is equivalent to endElementAt(0). No Parameters No Return Value No Exceptions endElementAt Creates a end instance time for the current time plus the specified offset. The new instance time is added to the end instance times list.

Clarify clipPath and Pointer-Events
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
Reported by Doug Schepers
Comment [1]
Description It is unclear where pointer events should be triggered on elements with a clipping path applied.
Resolution An explanation of the different values for 'pointer-events' and how they are affected by a clipping path will be added.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/masking.html#EstablishingANewClippingPath, insert:

14.3.6 Clipping paths, geometry, and pointer events A clipping path is conceptually equivalent to a custom viewport for the referencing element. Thus, it affects the rendering of an element, but not the element's inherent geometry. The bounding box of a clipped element (that is, an element which references a 'clipPath' element via a 'clip-path' property, or a child of the referencing element) must remain the same as if it were not clipped. By default, pointer-events must not be dispatched on the clipped (non-visible) regions of a shape. For example, a circle with a radius of 10 which is clipped to a circle with a radius of 5 will not receive 'click' events outside the smaller radius. Later versions of SVG may define new properties to enable fine-grained control over the interactions between hit testing and clipping.

feDiffuseLighting calculation does not define I(x,y)
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
Reported by Tim Rowley
In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/filters.html#feDiffuseLighting
Description The normal calculation in section 15.14 defines N in terms of a function "I(x,y)", which does not appear to be defined.
Resolution The equations are computing the surface normal at a given point of a surface made by treating the alpha channel as a height field. The text above those equations originally said "input alpha image I(x,y)" but was then edited to the longer and slightly more readable "input alpha image Ain (x,y)". Unfortunately, the same substitution was not made to the equations, just the description. This erratum makes the text and the equations consistent with each other and with the equations immediately following.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/filters.html#feDiffuseLighting, replace:

The surface described by the input alpha image Ain (x,y) is: Z (x,y) = surfaceScale * Ain (x,y)

getCurrentTime()/setCurrentTime() undefined before document timeline begin

Reported by Cameron McCormack
In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/struct.html#InterfaceSVGSVGElement
Description The behavior of SVGSVGElement's getCurrentTime() and setCurrentTime() methods is not defined if they are called before the document timeline has begun.
Resolution Calling getCurrentTime() before the document timeline has begun returns 0. Calling setCurrentTime() before the document timeline has begun will cause the document to be seeked to the specified time once the timeline has begun. If there are multiple such calls to setCurrentTime(), the last one takes effect.
Change

getCurrentTime Returns the current time in seconds relative to the start time for the current SVG document fragment. No Parameters Return value float The current time in seconds.

with:

getCurrentTime Returns the current time in seconds relative to the start time for the current SVG document fragment. If getCurrentTime is called before the document timeline has begun (for example, by script running in a 'script' element before the document's SVGLoad event is dispatched), then 0 is returned. No Parameters Return value float The current time in seconds, or 0 if the document timeline has not yet begun.

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/struct.html#InterfaceSVGSVGElement, replace:

If setCurrentTime is called before the document timeline has begun (for example, by script running in a 'script' element before the document's SVGLoad event is dispatched), then the value of seconds in the last invocation of the method gives the time that the document will seek to once the document timeline has begun.

Clarification of contentScriptType behavior
Status Proposed
Category Substantive
Reported by Erik Dahlström
In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/script.html#ScriptElement
Comment [1]
Description Scripting elements that have to move across unknown markup to get to the default script type should not be executed unless it understands the contentScriptType specified. Alternatively, it could be interpreted that the 'contentScriptType' defaults to "text/ecmascript" even though it lacks a direct 'svg' parent. The specification needs to clarify how this should work and if implementations are allowed to cross namespace boundaries in search of an 'svg' parent element. Additionally, clarification of the case where there is no 'svg' parent elment.
Resolution We will clarify that 'contentScriptType' applies only to the current SVG document fragment.

Remove exception on unsuspendRedraw

Reported by Erik Dahlström
In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/struct.html#InterfaceSVGSVGElement
Description The method unsuspendRedraw on SVGSVGElement in the 1.1 DOM is defined to throw an exception if the id given is invalid or if the id has already timed out. This is problematic, since if the exception is not caught the script will stop at that point. Imagine a case like this: h = svg.suspendRedraw(timedelta); ...timedelta+epsilon passes and the redrawing is resumed... svg.unsuspendRedraw(h);
Resolution We will drop the exception.

In reference to
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/struct.html#InterfaceGetSVGDocument
Comments [1], [2]
Description getSVGDocument is an alias for contentDocument. (Edit 20 May 2009) The Working Group revisited this erratum and changed it so that the return type of getSVGDocument() is a Document, so that any type of document can be returned (as is required by the contentDocument attribute defined in the Window specification). Word indicating that this interface would be implemented on the same kinds of objects that EmbeddingElement is implemented on, such as the DOM element for HTML 'object' elements.
Resolution We will make getSVGDocument() effectively a synonym for EmbeddingElement::contentDocument.
Change

In the case where an SVG document is embedded by reference, such as when an XHTML document has an 'object' element whose href (or equivalent) attribute references an SVG document (i.e., a document whose MIME type is "image/svg+xml" and whose root element is thus an 'svg' element), the SVG user agent is required to implement the GetSVGDocument interface for the element which references the SVG document (e.g., the HTML 'object' or comparable referencing elements). IDL Definition interface GetSVGDocument { SVGDocument getSVGDocument ( ) raises( DOMException ); }; Methods getSVGDocument Returns the SVGDocument object for the referenced SVG document. No Parameters Return value SVGDocument The SVGDocument object for the referenced SVG document. Exceptions DOMException NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: No SVGDocument object is available.

with:

This interface provides access to an SVG document embedded by reference in another DOM-based language. The expectation is that the interface is implemented on DOM objects that allow such SVG document references, such as the DOM Element object that corresponds to an HTML 'object' element. Such DOM objects are often also required to implement the EmbeddingElement defined in the Window specification [WINDOW]. This interface is deprecated and may be dropped from future versions of the SVG specification. Authors are suggested to use the contentDocument attribute on the EmbeddingElement interface to obtain a referenced SVG document, if that interface is available. IDL Definition interface GetSVGDocument { Document getSVGDocument(); }; Methods getSVGDocument This method must return the Document object of embedded content in an embedding element, or null if there is no document. Note that this is equivalent to fetching the value of the EmbeddingElement::contentDocument attribute of the embedding element, if the EmbeddingElement interface is also implemented. The author is advised to check that the document element of the returned Document is indeed an 'svg' element instead of assuming that that will always be the case. No Parameters Return value Document The Document object for the referenced document, or null if there is no document. No exceptions

It's not clear what happens in getSubStringLength if the given range start- or endpoints are on some inseparable character, such as a surrogate pair, or a multi-character glyph.

Reported by Cameron McCormack
In reference to

Description It is unclear what the effect of modifying the SVGSVGElement::useCurrentView attribute should be, especially since it reflects the state of the "inital view", i.e. just when the document is first displayed. Perhaps the attribute should be read only? Also, it's not clear when the NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR DOMException would be thrown, since useCurrentView doesn't correspond to a DOM attribute.

Description When assigning to SVGLength::valueAsString (or SVGAngle::valueAsString), the unitType should be changed to whatever was parsed from the given string. For example: var l = /* an SVGLength object */; l.valueAsString = '1em'; assert(l.unitType == SVGLength.SVG_LENGTHTYPE_EMS); assert(l.valueInSpecifiedUnits == 1); but the current description of valueAsString isn't clear about this. There's no indication of exception would be thrown if the given SVGLength string couldn't be parsed, or what exactly is the acceptable syntax. Exceptions also need to be added for newValueSpecifiedUnits and convertToSpecifiedUnits, in case an invalid unit type is passed.
Resolution The description of valueAsString on SVGLength and SVGAngle will be clarified, and exceptions will be added for the above cases.

Description The rendering order of pattern tiles that have overflow="visible" set is undefined.
Resolution Let overflow="visible" have explictly undefined behavior, and raise this issue for a later spec version.
Change

In http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVG11-20030114/pservers.html#Patterns, replace:

SVG's user agent style sheet sets the 'overflow' property for 'pattern' elements to hidden, which causes a rectangular clipping path to be created at the bounds of the pattern tile. Unless the 'overflow' property is overridden, any graphics within the pattern which goes outside of the pattern rectangle will be clipped.

Comment [1]
Description SVG 1.1 and SVG Tiny 1.2 specs both say the following regarding the 'moveto' command in path syntax: [[ If a 'moveto' is followed by multiple pairs of coordinates, the subsequent pairs shall be treated as implicit 'lineto' commands. ]] It's unspecified whether those implicit 'lineto' commands are absolute or relative. Since the first 'moveto' command in @d will be interpreted as an absolute 'moveto' regardless of whether it said 'M' or 'm', that may need additional clarification wrt implicit 'lineto's that follow it.
Resolution Clarify implicit linetos to be absolute or relative in line with current implementations

Command Name Parameters Description M (absolute) m (relative) moveto (x y)+ Start a new sub-path at the given (x,y) coordinate. M (uppercase) indicates that absolute coordinates will follow; m (lowercase) indicates that relative coordinates will follow. If a relative moveto (m) appears as the first element of the path, then it is treated as a pair of absolute coordinates. If a moveto is followed by multiple pairs of coordinates, the subsequent pairs are treated as implicit lineto commands.

M (uppercase) indicates that absolute coordinates will follow; m (lowercase) indicates that relative coordinates will follow. If a moveto is followed by multiple pairs of coordinates, the subsequent pairs are treated as implicit lineto commands. Hence, implicit lineto commands will be relative if the moveto is relative, and absolute if the moveto is absolute. If a relative moveto (m) appears as the first element of the path, then it is treated as a pair of absolute coordinates. In this case, subsequent pairs of coordinates are treated as relative even though the initial moveto is interpreted as an absolute moveto.
