<foreignObject>
===============

The **`<foreignObject>`** SVG element includes elements from a different XML namespace. In the context of a browser, it is most likely (X)HTML.

Example
-------
```

html,
body,
svg {
  height: 100%;
}
```



```html
<svg viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <style>
 div {
 color: white;
 font: 18px serif;
 height: 100%;
 overflow: auto;
 }
 </style>

  <polygon points="5,5 195,10 185,185 10,195" />

  <!-- Common use case: embed HTML text into SVG -->
  <foreignObject x="20" y="20" width="160" height="160">
    <!--
 In the context of SVG embedded in an HTML document, the XHTML
 namespace could be omitted, but it is mandatory in the
 context of an SVG document
 -->
    <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
      Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed mollis mollis
      mi ut ultricies. Nullam magna ipsum, porta vel dui convallis, rutrum
      imperdiet eros. Aliquam erat volutpat.
    </div>
  </foreignObject>
</svg>
```
