Answer 1

There are several ways to create an interactive SVG graph:

• Use SMIL, an extension to svg (Example tutorial http://apike.ca/prog_svg_smil.html)
• Javascript (the Raphael library is excellent)
• CSS animations

In any case, you'll have to display the svg graphs in a client which supports any of those technologies (browser), and you will have to code it in addition to the svg output graphviz creates.
