Hmm, thank you for the link Benoit. If I
understand the whitepaper the new functionality allows you to
embed inline tags that are to be interpreted by a different
processing agent. The example in the paper
showed a simpler way of embedding a SVG image into the html
stream.
I think that we use the OBJECT tag in a slightly different
way. We use the tag to tie a CGM file (and
optionally an XCF) to the registered viewer application and
not as a mechanism to pass tags to another
processing agent. To use the new namespace
functionality wouldn't we need to invent a new tag(s)
so that we could do something
like:
<webcgm xmlns="webcgm" file="myImage.cgm"
xcf="myXCFfile.xcf" />

Microsoft just
released its first beta of IE (with improved namespace support),
see:
It doesn't support
SVG yet (who knows if it ever will), but it does remove the need for the
<object> tag.
What does this
mean (if anything) for WebCGM content embedded in HTML?
Benoit.
