Keyboard Events

One more,

I realize that keyboard events are not part of the DOM Level 2 specification; however, I'm curious if there is a method in Batik that I can use to allow me to capture keyboard events?

TIA,
Kevin

Sounds like the best of all worlds to me...my Adobe-based SVGs with keyboard
interaction should work in Batik and I get to start playing with the
upcoming standard.  I'll be happy.

No worries.  I grateful for the Batik team has done so far.

Take care,

There is no way right now to get KeyEvents in Batik if you are in
ecmascript. You can access to Java AWT keyboard event if your are using
Batik in a Java program.

Even if there is no KeyEvents in DOM Level 2, many SVG developers are using
them and Adobe has implemented them - so I will work on it and add KeyEvents
in Batik soon.

My plan is to support both TextEvents (DOM Level 3 Key Events) and KeyEvents
(DOM Level 2 Working Draft key events) so everybody should be happy, I hope.

So my answer for this one is 'keep cool' :)
