attributeType

Deprecated: This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.

The attributeType attribute specifies the namespace in which the target attribute and its associated values are defined.

You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:

Example

<svg viewBox="0 0 250 250" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <rect x="50" y="50" width="100" height="100">
    <animate
      attributeType="XML"
      attributeName="y"
      from="0"
      to="50"
      dur="5s"
      repeatCount="indefinite" />
  </rect>
</svg>

Usage notes

Value	`CSS` \| `XML` \| `auto`
Default value	`auto`
Animatable	No

CSS: This value specifies that the value of attributeName is the name of a CSS property defined as animatable.
XML: This value specifies that the value of attributeName is the name of an XML attribute defined as animatable in the default XML namespace for the target element.
auto: This value specifies that the implementation should match the attributeName to an attribute for the target element. User agents first search through the list of CSS properties for a matching property name, and if none is found, search the default XML namespace for the element.
