currently foreignObject appears to ignore width and height attributes.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

2.
3.

Actual Results:  
html foreignObject and java foreignObject display at full size

Expected Results:  
html foreignObject should not display, has no width height attributes. 
java foreignObject should be cropped, has reduced width and height attributes.

for width and height, states that "a value of zero disables rendering of the
element"

it doesn't mention what happens where none is provided, presumably the same?

Could you attach the testcase to this bug?  The URL references in the URL field
just redirects to an HTML page.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
