Adding a "use" element (referencing a def in the same page) via javascript gets added to the DOM properly, but does not get drawn.

Will add an example.



Reproducible: Always




The javascript I used:

            function init() {
                var newUse  = document.createElementNS(svgNS, "use");
                newUse.setAttributeNS(svgNS, "id", "box2");
                newUse.setAttributeNS(svgNS, "xlink:href", "#greenBox");
                newUse.setAttributeNS(svgNS, "transform", "translate(100,100)");

                var svgRoot = document.getElementById('svg-root');
                svgRoot.appendChild(newUse);
}
The previous example had an artifact from "Save As".

Interestingly, in it it showed the added "use" element using "a0:href" instead of the "xlink:href" which firebug shows me...

Which might be the problem.
Tor set me straight in IRC, my javascript code for setting the xlink attribute was wrong, should have been:

newUse.setAttributeNS("http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink", "href", "#greenBox");

instead.

Works now. =)
