Editable Text in Raphaël

Is there a way to make a svg text editable in Raphaël JS as described in the SVG 1.2 Specifications (http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-SVG12-20040226/#text-edit)?

textelement.attr("editable", "true");

does not add the editable attribute to the textelement as I had hoped.

If there is no way I guess I will have to work with hovering html textelements…

The specification you link to is a working draft (a work in progress, subject to change). However, the SVG Tiny 1.2 spec does have almost the same thing, and it is a w3c Recommendation. Of course that doesn't magically make every implementation do what it says, but it's at least stable.

If you're looking for an implementation that does support 'editable' on svg text elements, then Opera is one example.

Raphael isn't a 100% SVG implementation. It only uses SVG & VML as a base. Therefore somethings may work, while others don't work quite as you expect and somethings don't work at all.
