In addition to my previous bit, here's some more about what is (too) difficult (for the non-expert) about coding SVG: (debugging) Javascript. Please send feedback on how you do it, preferably with screenshots or screencasts even. There's lots of little bits out there, but nothing that feels like a complete toolset that covers most of your needs, or is there? (and many of the Javascript tools expect an HTML environment for the JavaScript to live in.)

What i've found so far: cross-viewer getURL, authoring guidelines, Known bugs in viewers. If a start_off_with_this_file.svg is built that uses the jslint extern mymethod notation and all sorts of explanations or the URLs of where to find it within comments, it could help prevent mistakes.

But there will always be bugs left, so we also need real debugging tools. What i've found so far, that needs further investigation: Debugging SVG with Visual Studio (WinXP+IE+ASV), FireBug Javascript debugger(Firefox), and Batik' s show debug traces

A reaction would be very much appreciated
