371115 - SVG: DOM broken for script

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 370210

(Core :: SVG, defect)

Description

[jonathan chetwynd]

Attachment: reduced testcase

seems that scripting may be broken for DOM
attachment should show circle.

my apologies if the scope is not as wide as suggested by summary, or if this is a dupe.

I'm seriously pissed-off by the amount of regression, the continual failure to attend to bugs in a timely fashion, and the regular marking of bugs as "invalid" as a quick workaround that saves effort. 

Webkit and Opera are making significant advances at present.
I continue to hope that Mozilla will overcome these issues, at present it appears to be flooded.

I think this is the same issue as bug 293581. See comment 2 in that bug.

Attachment: slightly simpler testcase

Workaround: onload="setTimeout(init, 200)"

Robert, not sure about relation to bug 293581
this is a regression, check with ff2.0 whereas bug 293581 remains open.

#3 Jesse cheers! I'm really struggling to make progress, and this small kindness really helps ~:"

Attachment: testcase without "visibility" property (botched)

It seems that setting *any* attribute during onload can make the element invisible.  In this testcase, a circle that would otherwise be visible is made invisible by setting its "foo" attribute to "bar" during onload!

The patch in bug 370210 fixes this.
