Hi, wout! On first example I am receiving a following error message in console :(

if (SVG.supported) {
  var draw = SVG('drawing')
  var rect = draw.rect(100, 100)
} else {
  alert('SVG not supported')
}

You may have noticed that there is a magic param when you initialize SVG:

var draw = SVG(**'drawing'**)

This is the id of the element where the SVG is placed. It throws an error when there is no element with this id

Thank you, Fuzzyma! I'm very inconsiderate after a working day and I am a new in js... ) Now I have a chance to play with my big svg and remake all animations from SMIL to the lib! Good news. Yes!
