Support For SVG in Web Browsers
The use of SVG on the web is still limited by the lack of support in older versions of Internet Explorer (IE) which (as of June 2012) is the second most widely used browser, behind Chrome. The most widely deployed version of IE (version 8) does not support SVG. However, IE9 (released 14 March 2011) does support the basic SVG feature set. Many web sites that serve SVG images, such as Wikipedia, also provide the images in a raster format, either automatically by HTTP content negotiation or by allowing the user directly to choose the file.

Famous quotes containing the words support and/or web:
“‘Tis not enough to help the feeble up,
But to support him after.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“However, our fates at least are social. Our courses do not diverge; but as the web of destiny is woven it is fulled, and we are cast more and more into the centre. Men naturally, though feebly, seek this alliance, and their actions faintly foretell it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
