Scalable Vector Graphics - Support For SVG in Web Browsers

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:

    “There are so many intellectual and moral angels battling for rationalism, good citizenship, and pure spirituality; so many and such eminent ones, so very vocal and authoritative! The poor devil in man needs all the support and advocacy he can get. The artist is his natural champion. When an artist deserts to the side of the angels, it is the most odious of treasons.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “If our web be framed with rotten handles, when our loom is well nigh done, our work is new to begin. God send the weaver true prentices again, and let them be denizens.”
    —Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
