hi, after switching from FF2 to FF3 some SVG shows new behavior and I wonder whether I can do anything to change it bak to what it did in FF2. I have SVG that contains symbols like <symbol id="iconPrinter" viewBox="434.733 251.718 30.5341 19.6014"> <rect class="fil0 str0" x="442" y="252" width="15" height="11"/> <rect class="fil1 str0" x="435" y="258" width="28" height="11"/> </symbol> later, instances of those symbols are used throughout the svg drawing like <use id="iPrinter" transform="scale(0.791195 0.791195)" x="15.6261" y="197.181" width="30.5341" height="19.6014" xlink:href="#iconPrinter"/> Now, viewing the SVG in FF2 (and adobe SVG plugin) just shows the printer icon in it's place. When viewed in FF3, the printer icon is show and it becomes a kind of link: when I click on the icon I get redirected to map.svg#iconPrinter How can I disable this link behavior on use elements? I experimented with additional xlink attributes like xlink:type, xlink:show but it makes no difference. Why does this cause trouble at all? The SVG in question is a map of our building with several layers for the floors. The SVG is embedded in a HTML page "map.html". The SVG gets javascript code attached that i.e. responds to clicking on the printer icons. With FF2 only the javascript action got executed. But now in FF3 the action happens and then the link gets executed: in the browser the address "map.html" gets replaced with "map.svg#iconPrinter" - the svg gets loaded directly without the surrounding html and does not work anymore. Any ideas? thank you
