I believe, the problem is that you try it with HTML. you would need to use XHTML.

I have the same problem.
I use Drupal and all my pages don't have the .xhtml extension.
May be there is a way to create some declaration inside .html document to make firefox display svg without .html extension?
I can't find any solutions yet.
Thank you.

is it a link to an svg file or inline svg?

Jul 15 '10 #5

It is inline svg.
Yesterday i got some solution. I found svgweb library written in javascript. It works, i implemented it into my drupal site, but i'm still interested, may be there is a solution, that is easier. Thank you.

the easiest solution is (as has been previously stated) using XHTML (with at least the text/xml or better application/xhtml+xml header (i.e. use the xhtml extension))

HTML is not able to display such XML, that’s why XHTML was invented.

And what if i am not able to use xhtml extensions?
It's drupal with .php files.
What to do in this case? Use mod_rewrite rules or...?
I was looking for a possibility of using .html or .php files with some declaration in DOCTYPE or <html xmlns...>, but the today's solution is still the using of svgweb.

if you’re using PHP, use the header() function to send the MIME type.

again, you cannot use inline SVG in native HTML files.
