Uncle Johns Band commented on GERONIMO-2552:
--------------------------------------------
I don't see any recent activity on this item. I tried accessing the Chart demo
and am presented with the Message in IE (seems to work fine in FireFox) that
the component is unable to load the Adobe SVGN plug-in. You are provided the
link to the plug-in to download.
When you get to the Adobe site it is apparent that they will no longer be
supporting this as of 1/1/2008.
We need to remove the requirement for the SVG plug-in when using components
such as the Chart component so that there is cross-browser support without the
need of a 3rd party plug-in.
1/1/2008 will be here very quickly and this issue only has a low priority. I
would think that this issue should be elevated to be addressed and corrected
sooner rather than later.
No one wants to use components that require a non-supported 3rd party plug-in
to work.
