title: Parse SVG and add it to a svg element
body: <p>I have a service where I want to dynamically add SVG parts to a g element.  This is what the service returns:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;g xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" style="pointer-events: all;" opacity="1"&gt;
      &lt;title style="pointer-events: inherit;"&gt;Layer 1&lt;/title&gt;

  <p>The code I'm trying to use which has been modified many times is something to the affect of this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>function parseSVG(s, layer) {
      var div= $(s);
      for(var i = 0; i &lt; div.children.length; i++) {
          layer.append(div.children[i]);
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>layer is the g element s is the svg from above.  The closest I can get is adding title then all the path elements at once inside of svg_1.</p>
