    <p>I'm trying to access inline SVG elements in JavaScript, to add a click event. I'm running into issues adding the event to anything else than a single element identified with id. Using document.getElementById("p1_1_1") will work, but I'll need to manipulate 200 rectangles, so I will need to use document.getElementsByTagName or document.getElementsByClassName - both of which return meaningful HTMLCollections, but the addEvent won't add the event.</p> <p>I've tried Firefox 17 and Chrome 23, and some additional methods, such as the <code>getElementsByTagNameNS</code>, bu no luck so far. </p> <p>Thankful for any help you can offer.</p> <p>Here are stripped down versions of the JS code and HTML/SVG I'm working with:</p> <p><strong>JavaScript:</strong></p> <pre><code> function testing() { var testDiv = document.getElementById("tester"); testDiv.innerHTML = '&lt;h1&gt;Success!&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br&gt;'; } function addEvent(obj, evt, func) { if (obj.addEventListener) { obj.addEventListener(evt, func, false) } else if (obj.attachEvent) { obj.attachEvent("on" + evt, func); } else { alert("no success adding event"); } } function init() { var targetSquares = document.getElementsByTagName("rect"); addEvent(targetSquares, "click", testing); } window.addEvent(window, "load", init); </code></pre> <p><strong>inline SVG</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html lang="en-GB"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta charset="utf-8"&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="bsroyale.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="tester"&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id="gamemap"&gt; &lt;svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" viewBox="0 0 600 600"&gt; &lt;rect x="50" y="50" width="20" height="20" class="p1" id="p1_1_1" /&gt; &lt;rect x="71" y="50" width="20" height="20" class="p1" id="p1_2_1" /&gt; &lt;rect x="92" y="50" width="20" height="20" class="p1" id="p1_3_1" /&gt; &lt;rect x="113" y="50" width="20" height="20" class="p1" id="p1_4_1" /&gt; &lt;rect x="134" y="50" width="20" height="20" class="p1" id="p1_5_1" /&gt; &lt;!-- etc etc, 200 rect in total--&gt; &lt;/svg&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
