Thanks for your reply
Why do I ask here? Because there doesn't seem to be any (active) SVG
groups and a google groups search shows that this group is active and
has had quite a lot of SVG questions answered.
I am writing ASP pages that have some javascript, but not for the SVG
part!
Turns out the error was in the ASP part, but when I fixed that I get
the circles displayed but the radius is still affected by the
transform.
e.g. for a 1100 by 700 svg image
<svg>
<g transform='scale(0.102592799850774,0.241129865656218)
translate(-24234,-1604)'>
<circle cx='25957' cy='2036' r='30px' stroke='black' stroke-width='2'
fill='red'/>
<circle cx='27332' cy='2770' r='30px' stroke='black' stroke-width='2'
fill='red'/>
<circle cx='34956' cy='1732' r='30px' stroke='black' stroke-width='2'
fill='red'/>
</g>
</svg>
