Working with SVG polygon elements

Question

I\'m trying to work with an SVG polygon and javascript. I create a polygon and set its initial point list like this:

var polygon = document.createElementNS(\'htt         


        

Answer 1

No way around it I'm afraid. You have to reconstruct the string again. But it's not difficult to wrap the whole thing in an object, something like:

function Polygon () {
    var pointList = [];
    this.node = document.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/2000/svg','polygon');
    function build (arg) {
        var res = [];
        for (var i=0,l=arg.length;i

* not the best implementation but you get the idea.
