Dynamic DOM updates

[josh <jo...@speakeasy.net>]

Hi!

I've been crawling through the mail archives and I can't seem to find an 
answer to my question.  Please forgive me if this has been asked a 
hojillion times already:

I'm trying to dynamically control the SVG document through the DOM 
API.  For instance, say I have a JTextField and when the user types in an 
id, I do this:

String id = textfield.getText();
Element elt = svgdoc.getElementById(id);
if(elt != null){
   elt.setAttributeNS(svgns, "visibility", "hidden");
}
//...

There's no errors, but I never see the display update.  I'm using the 1.5b4 
release.

Do DOM events not trigger display updates still? I found a message that 
said so, but it was dated 2001, so I figured maybe some progress had 
occurred in that area =)

Thanks again for any help,

- josh
