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:
“I concluded that I was skilled, however poorly, at only one thing: marriage. And so I set about the business of selling myself and two children to some unsuspecting man who might think me a desirable second-hand mate, a man of good means and disposition willing to support another man’s children in some semblance of the style to which they were accustomed. My heart was not in the chase, but I was tired and there was no alternative. I could not afford freedom.”
—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
