Description Mat Booth CLA 2010-03-17 11:08:34 EDT 
Using RAP 1.3.0.20100201-1240 on Eclipse 3.5.1

When using the Browser widget, I cannot call any Java methods from Javascript embedded in SVG documents.

This works perfectly in the RCP Browser widget, and works perfectly in RAP Browser widget plus HTML pages, but not RAP Browser widget plus SVG pages.

Please see the attached screenshot and sample single-sourced RCP/RAP program demonstrating the problem. (Clicking on the SVG map should use the Java/Javascript bridge to set the workbench status line text.)

Screenshot of the problem

As you can see, the RAP application on the left, throws an exception saying the function is not defined, but the RCP application on the right works correctly.

I've just took a look at your screen-shot attached to the bug. It seems that the RAP application is starter from localhost (127.0.0.1), but the page with SVG in the Browser widget is from different domain ( www.matbooth.co.uk). Due to browser security restrictions, it is not possible to register a javascript function in a page, located in a different domain than the RAP application. This is a limitation of BrowserFunction support, but we can't do anything about it - browser security policies.
