Re: Broken image

Hi fireball,

	I'm pretty sure that your importer doesn't import the xml:base attribute from the 'svg' element.
So in the new document the 'image' element doesn't have an xml:base to establish the base URL to resolve 'image.png' against.  If you were to move the xml:base down to the 'g' I think it would work.

	Alternately (and probably better in the long run) you could have your importer create a 'g' element and set an xml:base attribute on that that corresponds to the URL of the document it's importing.  If you do that make sure to use 'setAttributeNS' with the 'xml' namespace (it's also best to use xml:base as your name).
