Find the ID from object-tag in svg

[dutzend]

Hi NG,

I must find the ID of the object-Tag from within the SVG.

<object data="test.svg" type="image/svg+xml" id="extern1"></object>

I try in TEST.SVG for example:

<svg onload="alert(document.parent.id)" ...>

I must get the id "extern1". Can somebody help?

Thx

can you dump it to the console?


<svg onload="console.dir( this )" ...>

Then explore the dom in the console until you find a property with the
value "external"

It might be possible to pass it in:
data="test.svg?id=external"

but that violates DRY. (and is lame).
