SVG DOM
DOM = Document Object Model
programmatic interface to the runtime XML tree
a general W3C mechanism with an SVG specialization
Scripts can be included in SVG (through a
script
node)
Scripts can modify:
the XML tree (add and/or delete nodes)
the attributes of individual objects
SVG is primarily declarative, but…
… this allows for programming
when necessary
