Dynamic animation in IE9 : how to stop them

Asked by Nathaire

I encounter the same problem that question https://answers.launchpad.net/smil/+question/203333 solved using dynamically created animation in SVG.

After using the given script function "registerAnimation", the animation are working in IE (I'm using IE 11).

My problem is that I have to be able to start/stop animation dynamically. On Chrome and Firefox, I simply remove the animate Tag from the DOM and it works, but in IE it doesn't work. I suppose that it is related to the use of the "registerAnimation" function.

Is there a way that I can use to "unregister" a previously registered animation ?

see JsFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/jLhsb/25/
Comment regarding the JsFiddle: clicking on the red box will stop/start the animation of the first black box (works on Chrome, not on IE11)

You can stop the animation by calling endElement() on the animation.

Can you help with this problem?
