Hello, I have encountered the following bug in Firefox 2: the actual
width and height of the SVG root element do not grow larger than the
width and height of the window (the client area, specifically) even
when explicitly assigned larger values.
Is there a known workaround for this? Thanks.

Does this occur in Firefox 3?

No, Firefox 3 is fine in this particular regard.

I have no information on this particuler issue, but if it works in
Firefox 3 (and not in Firefox 2) then the 'workaround' for the problem
would be to use Firefox 3

Sure, but I cannot count on all users of my project to use Firefox 3,
and forcing an upgrade down their throats seems impolite to me. Thanks
for your reply anyway.

Just thought that I should mention that I have fixed the problem over
a week ago. While setting the SVG root element's size via style is
indeed broken, using element attributes as in setAttributeNS(null,
"width", "3000px") did the trick.
