Do you mean a linked object, maybe? So that, perhaps:

<object width="473pt" height="312pt"
        type="application/xml-svg"
        handler="svgviewer"
        xlink:href="file:///home/fjf/picture.svg" >
 <param name="animation" value="no" />
 <param name="web" value="no" />
 <param name="images" value="no" />
 <![CDATA[base-64 encoded PNG "Preview" of linked object]]>
</object>

or do you just mean the name of the file that was embedded? I suppose an
xlink:href attribute can be used either way.

Frank, who's also completely new to embedded objects.

It's getting them wrong that is living, getting them wrong and wrong and
wrong and then, on careful reconsideration, getting them wrong again.
That's how we know we're alive: we're wrong.
