Question

Answer 1

A:

Firstly you're missing the html5 doctype which is implemented like so

<!DOCTYPE html>

at the top of your document.

then you need to add a document ready!

$(document).ready(function(){
    //The code here runs when the document is fully loaded into the DOM.
    //Create a blank rect, add its attributes
    the_box = $("<rect/>")
      .attr('x','100px').attr('y','0px')
      .attr('height','100px').attr('width','100px')
      .attr('fill','red');

      //Append the jQuery variable to the selector.
      $('svg[viewbox]').append(the_box);
});

Give that a go.

No, it doesn't work better. As I told before, in firebug, the html code I append is in gray style.

Answer 2

A:

So, it seems to be a namespace problem, the following code works

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            $(document).ready(function() {
                    rect = document.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/2000/svg', "rect");
                    rect.setAttribute("x", "100");
                    rect.setAttribute("y", "0");
                    rect.setAttribute("width", "100");
                    rect.setAttribute("height", "100");
                    rect.setAttribute("fill", "red");
                    $('svg').append(rect);
            })
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <svg viewbox="0 0 200 100" width="200px" height="100px">
            <rect x='0px' y='0px' height='100px' width='100px' fill='blue' />
        </svg>
    </body>
</html>
