Andreas, I am quite sure the above is what I want, many thanks for the pointer. However, looking at the examples, I am confused about the following -- the examples seem to use SVG layer generated on the server. I am generating the SVG layer right in the user's browser. So, I need something like the following

    var svgLayer = function(whatever) (
        return svg;
    );

    var aus_states = new OpenLayers.Layer.ScalableInlineXhtml(
        "Australia States",
        svgLayer(whatever),
        new OpenLayers.Bounds(98.0859375,-55.322265625,171.9140625,5.322265625),
        new OpenLayers.Size(840, 690),
        {isBaseLayer: false, opacity: '0.6'}
    );

In other words, instead of the "url" parameter to the initialization, I want to give it an svgLayer created right in the browser. Is that possible?

I am creating an SVG layer using some JavaScript code. How do I register this SVG "image" so it positions and overlays correctly on the OL map even when zooming in/out or panning?
