Scripts

• The attribute contentScriptType of the element <svg> specifies the default script language for all the scripts of the document
• Without this attribute, the default script language can be given by the HTTP header :

Content-Script-Type
• Without both, the default script language is  ECMAScript ( Javascript )
• Example :

    <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG December 1999//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/SVG-19991203.dtd">
<svg width="4in" height="3in">
  <defs>
    <script><![CDATA[
      /* Beep on mouseclick */
      MouseClickHandler() { beep(); }
     ]]>
    </script>
  </defs>
  <circle onclick="MouseClickHandler()" r="85"/>
</svg>
