Currently it is not possible to get any hyperlinks in pure XML documents without mixing with XHTML because there are no CSS extensions like Opera's -o-link and no xlink support. This is a serious limitation. Would it be possible for you to provide a simple test case for this? Bugzilla has experienced amnesia today, here is a comment that was lost: --- Comment #3 from Thom <thom.venividivici+webkitbugs@gmail.com> 2009-08-20 12:34:53 PDT --- http://www.snee.com/xml/xlink/sxlinkdemo.xml is an xml document that's used to showcase mozilla's xLink support, which is better, but also poor. Mozilla opted to not extend Xlink support beyond SVG and marked their bug as RESOLVED WONTFIX - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=xlink Further, it is also deprecated in SVG2 - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/xlink:href Can we close this, if we are not planning to extend XLINK. Thanks!
