color of the rectangle with the animateColor element.

the file as "animate_2.svg". Place the file in your Web directory:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg width="100%" height="100%" version="1.1"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<rect id="rec" x="300" y="100" width="300"
height="100" style="fill:lime">
<animate attributeName="x" attributeType="XML"
begin="0s" dur="6s" fill="freeze" from="300" to="0"/>
<animate attributeName="y" attributeType="XML"
begin="0s" dur="6s" fill="freeze" from="100" to="0"/>
<animate attributeName="width" attributeType="XML"
begin="0s" dur="6s" fill="freeze" from="300" to="800"/>
