I have not tested this, but according to W3C documentation, SVG implementations that support CSS are required to support external, internal, and inline CSS style sheets. The Batik implementation supports CSS. XSL style sheets are supposed to be supported in SVG according to the XML standard. > > Geoffrey Fox gcf@cs.fsu.edu or fox@csit.fsu.edu > Phones Cell 315-254-6387 FSU Office 850-644-4587 FAX 850-644-0098
