Re: [svg-developers] Wrapping Text in SVG 2

2013-06-05 Thread Jeff Schiller
Hi Doug,

I guess that height would also be needed for vertical fonts?  I think I saw
you mention that in one of your links...  I can't really figure out how
this would work for a text with a mixture of spans of horizontal /
vertical text, but that's why I don't write specs! :)

What if a text element has a textPath in it?  If a word on a path would
be displayed outside of the text's width, what should happen?

Would the whitespace property work with this (i.e. what values, if any,
would be supported for the CSS whitespace property)?

Would overflow-wrap/word-wrap: break-word work with this? (i.e. for words
that are longer than the text area is wide)

Would any of these CSS properties be supported: line-break, word-break,
hyphens?

Thanks,
Jeff

 Hi, folks-

 Some of you may remember me, though I haven't been very active in this
 list for a while. I work for W3C, I'm on the SVG Working Group, and I've
 been developing SVG apps and docs since about 2000 (though I'm a little
 rusty with development :D). I'm writing today to mention a proposal for
 the SVG 2 spec, and to solicit feedback.

 Over the years, I've spoken to many people who use SVG, and one of the
 pain points they remark on is wrapping text (aka multi-line text or
 flowing text).

 For a while now, we've planned to allow text wrapping into arbitrary
 shapes, most recently as part of the CSS regions, exclusions, and shapes
 specs. But those might take a while.

 In the short term, I think there's room for simple text wrapping based
 on CSS's box model. Effectively, by providing a width to a text
 element in SVG, it would wrap the text to that width.

 I think this is a pretty simple proposal, and it could be implemented
 fairly quickly after being specced out in SVG 2.

 You can read more about my rough proposal here:
 * http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Proposals/Wrapping_Text
 * http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-svg/2013Jun/0007.html
 * http://schepers.cc/its-a-wrap
 * http://schepers.cc/svg/text/text-wrap-width.svg
 * http://schepers.cc/svg/text/text-wrap-width-tspan.svg

 As regular users of SVG, I'd like to know if there are any
 considerations we should take into account, if you feel this would meet
 your needs for use in SVG, or if you have any concerns.

 Regards-
 -Doug

Re: [svg-developers] XML:ID And Ethnicity - Multiple Attributes

2012-10-22 Thread Jeff Schiller
Use the class attribute?

On Mon, Oct 22, 2012 at 3:48 PM, jamesd jcdeeri...@yahoo.com wrote:

 **


 I am trying to make sense out of the xml:id tag and its usage as an
 attribute definer. Reading the web doesn't offer anything but
 contradictions. It seems that some want it to go away, leaving no way to
 specify a common attributes, and just have a unique id be used.

 This leaves a non-politically correct person, like myself perplexed. If
 several SVG or CSS components have a common attribute, how do I group these
 elements by attribute? It would appear that the HTML name is being
 deprecated, I assumed that xml:id would be its replacement.

 I like to think of ethnicity in this regard. When I am asked my ID, I have
 a name. I also check the ethnicity of white. So, I have two distinct
 identifying characteristics.

 In my example for utilizing a singular display canvas for tablets and HDTV
 screens, I have grouped several g elements with unique ids, but with the
 same common denominator xml:id. This allows the display of the elements to
 be controlled by id and a common xml:id attribute at the same time. Makes
 sense to me, but others disagree, such as Opera.

 If xml:id is not meant to be used in this way, could someone try to
 explain how to keep the two identifiers, without using xml:id and without a
 complex javascript routine? Simplicity is best for me.

 Example file works with Firefox, Chrome and IE, not with Opera.

 I'm hoping to get some guidance on why Chrome is not rendering a SVG image

 Here is a svg file which displays two icons
 http://www.basher-sounds.co.uk/ou/svg/test/icon-test-defs.svg .

 They both render as expected in recent versions of Firefox, Safari, and
 IE9. However in Chrome the lightbulb icon (on the right) has a missing
 ellipse which it appears as white blob. Both the icons were created in
 Adode Illustrator then exported as SVG. (Note- I edited the element ids to
 amke them unique so that many such icon defintions can be used in the same
 SVG file).
 FYI here is a PNG showing how the lightbulb icon should appear
 http://www.basher-sounds.co.uk/ou/svg/test/position.png
 and here is one showing the icon as it appears in Chrome
 http://www.basher-sounds.co.uk/ou/svg/test/position-icon-chrome.png (i.e.
 with a white blob).

 Can anyone tell me if there is known issue with Chrome that might be
 causing this?
 The ellipse has a linear gradient and a feColorMatrix filter but Googling
 arouund I can't see any issues reported but might have missed them. Any
 help much appreciated!

 Thanks and best wishes

Re: [svg-developers] Caching SVG produced by PHP file

 Hi there,

 I would like to cache the SVG files which I generate via PHP. But it seems
 a bit difficult. When I first call the PHP file which produces the SVG, I
 use the OBJECT element to display it on the website:

 object id='svg_object' data='data_vis_bars_svg.php' type='image/svg+xml'
 width='1150' height='500'/object

 But when caching the SVG file, I can't use the OBJECT anymore, but must
 use the EMBED instead:

 embed id='svg_object' src='../etc/cache/data_vis_bars_svg.svg'
 type='image/svg+xml' width='1150' height='500'/embed

 Do you know of any intelligent workaround here? Not sure what I can do
 about this...

 Thanks for any hints!

Re: [svg-developers] Re: SVG Drawing Tool - Simplified

2011-09-16 Thread Jeff Schiller
Looks like filters are coming in IE10 (yay!).

On the other hand, it doesn't look very good for SMIL (boo) or SVG fonts
(meh).

And yes, Francis, by my count, 55% of the web can see SVG right now and only
a small portion of those are using IE9.

I'm not trying to pile on here, but I can't fathom why you would design this
application for one and only one browser.  To my count, you're serving 7% of
web users and leaving the other 48% (yes, almost half the web's users) out
in the cold.

I could understand if there was a specific technology only present in IE9
and not yet in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera that you needed to use -
but is there?

You might also want to consider a 'build' step in which you compile all 61
of your JavaScript files into one massive JS to save on
requests/downloads/bandwidth.  I recommend the Closure compiler:

 Is it possible for a server process to generate accurate bitmap thumbnails

 I've looked at ImageMagik which can use librsvg to do it but how accurate
 is it ?

 I don't have a lot of control over the svg document content because it can
 come from any number of different sources. If it contains ecmascript or
 other scripts then a script could potentially make it look completely
 different on the server than it does in a browser.

 Is it necessary to somehow build a javascript engine into the server to run
 all the scripts before generating the thumbnails ? Or do people not (yet) do
 this kind of thing with scripts in svg documents ?

Re: [svg-developers] Any SVG editor with a trace function?

2011-04-22 Thread Jeff Schiller
I think this would be an interesting idea.  Basically you would:

  a) load an SVG document into the DOM, put it into an invisible container
(display:none)
  b) then walk the DOM in a depth-first fashion, cloning elements one a
time, to a visible container

Jeff

2011/4/22 Barend Köbben kob...@itc.nl

 Well, you could do this maybe by scripting, removing the comments line by
 line, but I guess you could also use Firebug or another such web browser
 debugger to dissect what is where in the file...

Re: [svg-developers] Help with viewBox attribute and transforms

2011-03-18 Thread Jeff Schiller
This file saved as .xhtml works for me in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and
Opera:

?xml version=1.0?
html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml;
  body
span class=image
  svg xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; version=1.1 width=1000px
height=110px
svg viewBox=0 0 194 102 preserveAspectRatio=none
  g
rect id=svg_1 height=97 width=189 y=2.5 x=2.5
stroke-width=5 stroke=#00 fill=#FF/
ellipse ry=19 rx=93.5 id=svg_2 cy=52.5 cx=97
stroke-width=5 stroke=#00 fill=#00/
  /g
/svg
  /svg
/span
  /body
/html

The rectangle and ellipse fill up the 1000x110 region defined by the outer
SVG.

Note that sadly Firefox 3.6-, Safari 5- and Opera 11.10- do not support
SVG-in-HTML5 yet so you have to go the XHTML route.

 Hi!
 I'm just starting with SVG and tearing my hair out because it is ignoring
 my attempts to scale an image. I have an SVG 'island' within my DOM as
 follows:

 stroke=#00 fill=#00/
 /g
 /svg
 /svg
 /span

 My understanding of this is that it should scale the rectangle and elipse
 to fill the dimensions of the outer SVG element. But it does not, the shapes
 remain the size specified regardless of the outer SVG width and height. If
 the width and height are set less than 194x102, then the shapes are clipped
 to the size specified.

 What am I missing here? Note that I have tried it in numerous modern
 browsers and I have also tried numerous variations including eliminating the
 inner SVG element and adding its attributes to the outer. One clue is I
 tried replacing the viewBox attribute with 'transform=rotate(90)' but that
 has no effect either so it seems transforms are being ignored altogether.

 Please help me if you can!

Hi Francis,

On Thu, Jan 20, 2011 at 8:29 AM, Francis Hemsher fhems...@gmail.com wrote:



 Hi David,

 Because SVG has no specifics on UI zoom and pan, many of us have had to
 create script packages to accomplish this. No matter how elegant our
 zoom/pan works, it still requires the user to 'learn' how to use it within
 our particular app.: This is a burden to the SVG user.
 Therefore,
 SVG must have a basic built-in zoom/pan defined similar to the ASV: CTL-key
 = zoom box, and the ALT-key = pan hand.

De facto UI convention established by a big player is one thing, but I can't
see the SVG spec mandating a particular key-combination to achieve a UI
effect, if that's what you're suggesting.

  * What about OSX where cmd is used in place of ctrl for most things?  Note
that ctrl-scrollwheel on OSX is full-screen zoom on the desktop for OSX.
  * What about touch-devices?
  * What about smartphones that don't have a ctrl key?

Jeff

IE6 does not support SVG without a plugin.
IE7 does not support SVG without a plugin.
IE8 does not support SVG without a plugin.

As far as I know, Adobe will still leave the download up after 2008,

Just to correct some facts here:

- Opera didn't support JavaScript with SVG until 9.0
- there was no Opera 9.3

I highly recommend looking into Mr. Dailey's examples of SVG...

or so if my memory is right. Several hundred examples may be seen in

 Important code:

 So you basically just instantiate a new shape, and use it to

wrote:

 What methods (perhaps even reliable methods) are favoured for on-the-fly
 'detecting' support of SVG either in part or whole?

I prefer, where possible to use the HTML object element with HTML
fallback for browsers that doesn't support SVG (older browsers and
IE).  See menu.svgz on my site for an example (http://blog.codedread.com/)

 
 By 'in part' I imply within the first two options above: can we
usefully or
 reliably test on an individual 'element' basis whether we're going
to get
 expected results or not, for such things as smil anim, effects,
xlink, and
 so on. 

Yes.  Declaratively, you can do this with the switch element and test
attributes (requiredFeatures).  See Erik's reply for links to the
spec.  Procedurally, you can do this with the hasFeature DOM method
that David mentioned in his email or you can test that individual DOM
attributes/methods exist (not all implementations have covered 100% of
the SVG DOM yet).

[svg-developers] Re: SVG embedded within HTML

2008-09-12 Thread Jeff Schiller
--- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, John C. Turnbull
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 I don’t know much about XHTML (other than that it is well-formed
HTML) so how does a browser go about rendering it?  I mean can you do
everything you can do in HTML with XHTML?  That is, is it a perfectly
reasonable thing to do to represent an entire web page in XHTML and
not be limited in some way?
 

Functionally, XHTML is nearly equivalent to HTML.  There are some
gotchas though.  For instance,

- though browsers support it, the 'target' attribute on links is not
part of XHTML 1.x (so your XHTML will not be compliant). 
Additionally, other HTML deprecated attributes/elements are similarly
not compliant (meaning your browser will render and function on them
as they would in HTML, but validators will complain).

However you should be aware that publishing in XHTML has the following
drawbacks:

- IE does not support XHTML (the MIME type application/xhtml+xml) so
you will need to use some server-side content negotiation (look if the
HTTP_ACCEPT header supports that MIME type) and switch to text/html
for IE users or they will be left out in the cold
- XHTML is XML, so processing will stop if you've made any errors in
your page (the entire page will not render, in Firefox this is called
a 'Yellow Screen Of Death').  This is good to detect errors if you're
publishing a 'static' site, but if you have dynamic or
user-contributed content it is much trickier

 I have another question about SVG support in browsers...
 
  
 
 Does SVG work just as well in browsers when it's embedded within an HTML

If you're talking about inline SVG (i.e. the SVG markup directly in
the HTML document) then browsers at the moment will not support this
in HTML, but only in XHTML.  I believe Sam Ruby has experimented with
doing inline SVG in HTML on his site (using JS to serialize inline SVG
into the HTML DOM).

However, you can include-by-reference SVG documents from HTML
documents using the HTML object tag - similar to how you would include
images using the HTML img tag.  This works just fine in all of the
SVG-supporting browsers today.

[svg-developers] Re: Safari problem with no nought

2008-09-10 Thread Jeff Schiller

[1] describes each of the path commands as having 'coordinates'.  [2]
says that coordinates are lengths which are numbers which can be
in decimal notation:

either an integer, or an optional sign character followed by zero
or more digits followed by a dot (.) followed by one or more digits.

which indicates to me that not including the 'nought' is ok and should
be allowed.

On the other hand, I'm not sure about begin/end times in SMIL.  I
noticed last night that Opera seems to have problem with missing
nought characters in SMIL events (i.e. begin=.25s).  Haven't done
any thorough investigation though.

These are the types of things we need to include in a 'SVG Torture Test'

[svg-developers] Event Handling With Overlapping Objects

2008-09-09 Thread Jeff Schiller
This appears to be a simple problem, but sadly I haven't yet figured
out a solution.

- contained within the bounding box of a rectangle is a circle
- only when the mouse enters the bounding box of the rectangle, I want
to alert some message
- only when the mouse leaves the bounding box of the rectangle, I want
to alert some message
- when a mouse clicks on the circle, I want to alert some message.

Naïve code thus far:

svg xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg;

  rect width=300 height=300 fill=green
onmouseover=alert('rect.mouseover')
onmouseout=alert('rect.mouseout') /
  circle id=circ cx=100 cy=100 r=25 fill=red
onclick=alert('circ.click')/

/svg

The problem of course is that when the mouse moves into the circle,
the mouseout event fires for the rect (even though I'm still within
the rect's bounding box).  If I put pointer-events=none on the
circle, then I can no longer capture click events on the circle...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff Schiller

Next iteration (that actually works most of the time):

svg xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg;

  rect id=outer pointer-events=none width=300 height=200
stroke-width=5 visibility=hidden 
   onmouseout=alert('mouseout');
document.getElementById('inner').setAttribute('pointer-events',
'all');
document.getElementById('outer').setAttribute('pointer-events',
'none') /
  rect id=inner x=1 y=1 width=298 height=198 fill=blue 
   onmouseover=alert('mouseover');
document.getElementById('inner').setAttribute('pointer-events',
'none');
document.getElementById('outer').setAttribute('pointer-events',
'stroke') /
  circle cx=100 cy=100 r=25 fill=green
onclick=alert('click') /
  
/svg

Notice all the extra baggage and the toggling of point-events
attributes...  Also, at least my testing on Firefox and Opera in
Ubuntu, the mouseout events are not always captured if you move the
mouse fast enough.

As Doug mentioned on freenode's #svg irc, it sure would be nice to
have something like mouseenter/mouseleave standardized.  Is that a DOM
Events thing or something within the purvey of SVG?

 Erm ... this is exactly what I am asking about. Neither of the above
 blogs work properly in IE, (SVG not rendered, tried on 3 different
 machines) though in the the case of codedread it looks different
 depending on whether it has the Adobe viewer plugin plugged in (you
 get more if it isn't).

In both of these blogs, it is somewhat a conscious choice that things
don't look as good in IE as they do in other modern browsers.  In some
small way it is educating people how far behind IE is in implementing
standards.  Call it a political statement if you want, but I cannot be
bothered to work around IE's limitations.


 
 What I am trying to do (to start with) is no more than to be able to
 upload some SVG to my homepage, in whatever form that works, and for
 most people to be easily able to view it in their browser, whatever it
 is, (given the Adobe or other viewer if they are IE users) without
 having to download it first and then open the local file.

You can do this today simply by using the object or embed tag.  If
the user has the plugin installed, the SVG will render.  If you want
to point them to a download page for a plugin, you will probably need
to investigate how this is done (I haven't done the research yet on
how best to do this, but this was done with the Flash plugin pretty
heavily back in the day - one reason why the Flash plugin enjoys such
widespread deployment).

Hello Charles,

In my opinion, this depends on the type of SVG you want to embed into
your pages.

--- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, cwflamont [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Could someone please point me towards recent thinking on how to get
 SVG content to download and display properly in Multiple browsers?

If your content requires scripting, then I think the best approach is
still described by my a
href=http://blog.codedread.com/archives/2007/01/19/guide-to-deploying-svg-with-html/#includingSVG;guide
to deploying SVG/a, which suggests serving objects to non-IE
browsers and embed to IE.

If your content does not require scripting, then I suggest to simply
use object like I do on my blog for clip art:
http://blog.codedread.com/.

 Does referencing the SVG as an object/ make things better or worse? 
 

This could be a matter of opinion.  I favor object because it allows
fallback content for those browsers that do not support SVG (IE
without a plugin, Firefox 1.0-, Safari 2.0-, Opera 8.0-).  Also, for
things like clip art, if you want to update the SVG you need only do
it one place and all your pages that reference the SVG are
automatically updated.

On the other hand, inline SVG conserves HTTP requests and allows for a
much easier view-source + copy-paste paradigm, see Sam Ruby's blog:
http://intertwingly.net/blog.

[svg-developers] Re: SVG file structure/source code

2008-02-15 Thread Jeff Schiller
Hello Nevi,

One of the benefits of SVG is that the file _is_ the source code - the
image is just plain text, though it may not be obvious to a newbie.

If the document you're looking at is a pure SVG file, you can click
View  Source in your browser.

If the document is HTML with an SVG file embedded, in Firefox you can
right-click the image, click This Frame  View Source (browsers differ
on how to do this).

If the document is XHTML with an SVG image defined inline (like on
http://intertwingly.net/) then you can view the source of the web page
and search for svg.

Hope that helps,
Jeff

 Jeff,
 Have you tried a solution that uses use elements for keeping the
z-order  
 the way you want it?
 
 Simple example:
 rect id=a
set attributeName=xlink:href to=#a begin=mouseover  
 xlink:href=#top/
 /rect
 rect id=b
set attributeName=xlink:href to=#b begin=mouseover  
 xlink:href=#top/
 /rect
 rect id=c
set attributeName=xlink:href to=#c begin=mouseover  
 xlink:href=#top/
 /rect
 use id=top xlink:href=#a/
 
 I have been trying to find good solutions to the z-order problem as
well,  
 moving elements around in the tree and expecting mouse events to
cooperate  
 is quite hard in my experience. That is, if I want something to move
to  
 front when I mouseover it, the only way I've found reliable is to use  
 scripting, because the instant I move an element to the top I get
another  
 mouse event on whatever was under it (because moving it means take
it out  
 of the tree, then inserting it somewhere else), and that makes the
element  
 that I wanted to have focus lose it. So, I have to block events
until  
 everything is in place.

Think of some icons arranged on a carousel, with an animation that

animation in SVG.

 Seems like the z-order and painter's model poses a problem that
 requires scripting to fix, but I would love to be proven wrong...
 
 Hi Jeff,
 
 Let me see if I understand: suppose we synchronize the position in
the carousel with another SMIL timer
 (as in
http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/newstuff/SMIL11.svg where
activity is either started through SMIL or script)
 but one that withdraws and reassigns event handlers. Then would your
question be equivalent to the question of whether or not we can assign
and withdraw event handlers through SMIL. I don't know why z-index
would enter, and I don't know what you mean by painter's model.
 
 By the selected  icon I assume you don't just mean highlighted
visually -- since that is pretty easy, if I understand what you mean
(the above example withdraws or extends visibility declaratively)  but
rather enabled to listen for some sort of event. I think Doug Schepers
has some similar examples.
 
 If I'm following the question then, I would think either trying
something like
 
 g id=icon onfocus=demonstrateFocus()
 animate  attributeName=onfocus values=demonstrateFocus();null
dur=0.5 begin=synchronize.begin fill=freeze/
 /g
 
 or 
 
 g id=icon
 set attributeName=onfocus to=demonstrateFocus()
begin=synchronize.begin  /
 /g
 
 might do something like what you have in mind, though I rather doubt
that the attributes onclick or onfocus or onwhatever are
animateable.
 
 Does my thinking here have anything to do with the problem you're
discussing? I hope so since it seems like an interesting problem. If
onclick is not animateable, I suspect there is some gross real world
reason that it isn't, cause it would seem like a nice thing to be able
to do.

[svg-developers] Safari 3 Links broken (target=_top or _parent)

2007-09-14 Thread Jeff Schiller
http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15214

:(

Can anyone think of a decent way around this?  Currently I'm thinking
of not even using svg:a elements and just use some script like:

g onclick=top.location.href='foo.html' cursor=pointer /

The problem with this is that since ASV is a plugin, it does not have
permissions to go beyond its own frame and the above fails with a JS
error.

I need a cross-browser solution (or go vote for the bug so that it
gets fixed before Safari 3 is released).  Last resort is to browser
sniff ...

Thanks,
Jeff

2007-04-25 Thread Jeff Schiller
What UAs are you trying it in?

I've never yet played with foreignObject, though it's going to be
enabled in Firefox 3 from what I understand.  Not sure if Opera has
support for it yet.

 Maybe I'm just naive here, but to me, the promise of the
 foreignObject element is that you can take a block of code from
 another markup language and dump it right into a block of SVG code by
 surrounding it with foreignObject and maybe modifying it a little.
 
 Given the fact that I can't even seem to get examples provided by web
 sites such as Croczilla and W3.org to work correctly, maybe this is
 one of those things we just have to wait on.  But if anyone's had any
 success with this kind of thing, I'd like to know.  So far all of my
 attempts have resulted in none of the HTML showing up.  I doubt I'll
 bother trying to do this anymore unless I'm really missing out on
 something.
 
 I'm only interested in dumping HTML into an SVG (or mixed XML/SVG,
 XHTML, etc.) document, not the other way around.

Well if it worked before and you moved servers and now it doesn't work

I know that Opera and IE+ASV try to figure out the MIME type based on

the MIME type.

 how I want the SVGZ file dealt with and giving me the default of

[svg-developers] Re: Microsoft -- VML, SVG, XAML

2007-02-14 Thread Jeff Schiller
Most of what we can discuss here will be pure speculation, but I have
heard from some sources that a future version of IE will support SVG.
 Chris Wilson has publicly stated that Microsoft considers SVG one of
the core standards that all browsers should implement (it was lumped
into the bucket with HTML, CSS, JavaScript).  That's all I know at the
moment.  

And look at the facts:  Mozilla, Opera, Konqueror and soon Safari all
support SVG.  From the looks of things, within a year's time we will
have 3 major browsers natively support a very decent set of SVG 1.1
features.  Is IE really going to sit that one out and put all their
chips on XAML?

From what I can tell - with the XAML/WPF infrastructure in place, it
might be a relatively small project to also implement SVG support
(including scripting) - so I think Microsoft would be stupid not to.

Btw, I don't think WPF/E will necessarily be plugin-only - I think
that a future version of IE (the next one) will probably just support
it natively - they will keep the plugin around for all the other
browser users, which they can't ignore anymore.

Just some random thoughts from the sidelines,
Jeff

--- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, ddailey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Prior to the release of IE7, there was a good deal of speculation on
this list (including a bit of active attempt at pursuasion), back
circa April 2006, about Microsoft's long term plans for SVG.
 
 Does anyone have any new insights?
 
 On a related note, the last strategic note I can find from Microsoft
concerning VML is that they will continue to support it -- but that
statement is dated 1999, I think. Can we assume that VML will be
around precisely as long as Microsoft is or do they plan to gradually
phase it out over the next few decades? It seems like the security bug
that popped up in October of 2006 may have made it more of a liability
than an asset. Is anyone at MS talking about the future of VML?
 
 Just musing aloud:
 
 I gather that most of XAML lives outside the browser environment and
is more concerned with gluing things together (sort of like XSLT or
sXBL) than with actual 2D graphics -- as I recall, Apple had developed
something kinda cool like that in the late 1980's. For those who have
worked with XAML, how difficult would it be to let IE version k7.0,
coexist with XAML and SVG? 400 person years or less? 
 
 How many person years did the ASV plugin take to develop (or is that
a secret)? How many person years have gone into Opera and Firefox's
SVG developments?  100 person years or less? It's hard to imagine any
software project with the big companies taking less than 100 person
years, just owing to the appetites of the bean counters. (Brooks' law
may underestimate both the weight of beans and the value of zeal.)

 var i=0
 var elm;
 while(elm=coll.item(i++)){

[svg-developers] SVG in a XHTML:table

2007-01-02 Thread Jeff Schiller
I have a question about XHTML+SVG when it comes to laying out SVG in a
HTML:table.  Here's my minimal test case.  I've also sent the question
to the www-svg and public-cdf lists:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd;
html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; xml:lang=en 
  style type=text/css* { border-style:solid }/style
  body
  table border=1
tr
  td
pParagraph One/p
pParagraph Two/p
pParagraph Three/p
pParagraph Four/p
pParagraph Five/p
pParagraph Six/p
pParagraph Seven/p
  /td
  td
svg version=1.1 width=40px height=100%
xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; 
  rect x=0 y=0 width=100% height=100% fill=red /
/svg
  /td
/tr
  /table
/body
/html

Firefox 1.5, 2 and 3 (latest nightly) consider the svg element's
height of 100% to be the height of the browser window.  Opera 9
considers the svg element's height of 100% as a static 150 pixels in
this instance (?).  Both seem wrong to me - it seems like the browser
should take 100% to mean the tallest element in the table's row
(which would be defined by the seven HTML:p elements in the other cell).

Can someone tell me what the spec states about the file above and what
SHOULD happen?  I can do the browser bug opening, if required...

Thanks,
Jeff

 If you are interested, I load logos via XMLHTTPRequest and it works

Thanks, Bruce - that's a great example.  Might be nicer to just have:

g onload=importsvg('someFile.svg', this).../g

where importsvg() wraps up your code a little tighter...

Another question to anyone out there:  I don't see any way from within
JavaScript to determine the SVGScriptElement
(http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/script.html#InterfaceSVGScriptElement)
that contains the current statements being executed.  That's kind of
funny because in order for the script to be executing it must be
included in the DOM, right?  The script doesn't have any idea which
DOM element contains itself.

 For SVG Tiny 1.2, we tightened up the particulars of scripting (child 
 content and referenced files, scripting context, order of execution, 
 etc.).  I don't know if this was covered, but I'll check up on it
and if 
 it wasn't, I'll bring it to the SVG.  Do you have a pragmatic use case 
 that could help me solidify the rationale?

Doug, you can ignore my request - it was only a curiosity and there's
no practical application for it, I guess.

I was just looking to avoid having to send another argument into a JS
method - which isn't worth any major changes, it would be nicer for
the JS function to discover where to add the SVG function by virtue of
where it was invoked.  Btw, I think this same thing is there in HTML
DOM scripting too...

[svg-developers] Re: ASV End-of-life cancelled and IE 7.2 with native SVG support???

2006-12-20 Thread Jeff Schiller
Since the information you are quoting is coming from my blog, I feel
it my duty to respond.

Adobe, EOL, ASV:  

http://blog.codedread.com/archives/2006/12/18/adobe-allows-svg-viewer-download-indefinitely/
explains that Adobe no longer plans to remove the download.  It DOES
NOT say that they are not end-of-lifing ASV.  As others have
explained, a company can EOL something and still make it available for
download as unsupported software.

IE 7.2 and SVG:

http://blog.codedread.com/archives/2006/06/02/ie72-to-support-svg/ has
a question mark in the title and links to another blog which makes
this statement.  It's really unfortunate that the post slug doesn't
pick up this crucial ASCII character! :)  

In my own post I state that I've never heard of an IE 7.2.  In fact,
I have subsequently learned from Chris Wilson (from the IE team) that
he himself has not heard this statement, nor of a 7.2 version of IE.
 I think they are calling the next version IENext until it's more
formally announced.  If you read through Chris' Powerpoint slides you
will see the statements that Microsoft recognizes SVG as one of the
web standards (along with HTML, CSS) that make up the core in terms
of standards support for the web.  One can _INFER_ from this that they
will eventually have to support SVG in some form in some version of
IE.  Get our your crystal balls...

Jeff

 Also, is this disinformation or has someone heard that IE will offer 
 native support for SVGs in IE 7.2?
 
 Here is the link with the ASV statement:

 2006, Adobe has decided to keep the viewer download available

 I think that keeping ASV on the Adobe site (down the road) 
 constitutes support for ASV...
 
 Thanks for any clarification.

 Last week, the panel of judges for the SVG logo contest decided upon

 Over the next few weeks, we will finalize the actual form (including

 be suitable for inclusion on Web pages to indicate the level of SVG 
 support needed for proper viewing of the site's content.  It is also

Doug,

I agree - 'brand recognition' is important and I thank 6th Sense
Analytics and everyone else behind the contest - I think the winning
choice looks really nice.  Seems like orange is the new black ;)

Anyway, I've updated my blog header (http://blog.codedread.com/) with
the logo in the bottom-right corner.  In true dynamic SVG form, the
logo is invisible unless you mouse over the blog header image, which
makes it semi-transparent.  Mousing over the logo makes it fully opaque.  

I've also put an image at the bottom of my home page
(http://www.codedread.com/) next to the XHTML validation tag (that
doesn't validate!).

Too bad Firefox/Opera don't support SVG-as-image as we recently

Doug, I hope you'll be doing a better job than I did of hacking the
logo and ID'ing the elements properly...

[svg-developers] Re: WPF/E Goes Beta Community preview available for download

2006-12-06 Thread Jeff Schiller
  But you do know it has been possible, for quite some time, to render
  core SVG instructions on the majority of desktops today, right?
  http://deng.com.br/features/
 
  If you wish to improve the rendering instructions, then you can do
so...
  it's an opensource SWF which contains the SVG code:
  http://deng.com.br/support/

Unfortunately, as already mentioned the DENG project is still in its
infancy.  Static SVG content is one thing, but where SVG's power is in
interaction with the DOM and its scriptability.  

I think I've asked before, but couldn't find my post when searching: 
What would be the challenge in taking the Mozilla codebase and turning
that into an ActiveX control for IE that handles XHTML and SVG
content?  IE6 and 7 both don't support either MIME types, so this
would allow XHTML with SVG inline as well as SVG linked by reference
(HTML:object).  Get that deployed far enough and you could actually
see XHTML and SVG start to make inroads into the web.  Granted, it's
still a plugin, but at least it couldn't be killed by a corporation's
whim.

Of course, I'm sure I'm just being naive and this is not an easy task.

I'd also ask where's the Moz 1.8.1 version of the control, but a Moz

Next, how does one go about configuring an ActiveX control to handle

Hi Jon,

Yes, an IE plugin is the 6th option.  Not to be pedantic, but I did 
say The other options outside of an IE plugin are ;)  

The IE plugin option covers a lot of other possible solutions in 
and of itself.  Emiasys' Renesis is one of those, but I'm afraid they 
are not moving fast enough to capture market share before ASV dies 
out.  Right now they are doing a rewrite to restructure their code 
for performance improvements...  I would rather see them fully 
implement a scriptable SVG profile first...

That's why I'm thinking of other open-source solutions (i.e. Mozilla, 
WebKit, KHTML) that already include scripting, DOM support, etc (even 
if other very important features are not there, such as declarative 
animation).

Jeff

 Hi Jeff,
 Good summary of the options. There is one more option - there is 
always the
 faint hope that someone will provide an SVG plugin to replace ASV. 
(Maybe
 you are thinking about doing something in this direction with 
Mozilla.)
 
 In terms of Dojo2D, my understanding aligns with yours in that it 
does not
 yet support declarative SVG (i.e., SVG markup) and instead 
requires
 building an SVG model in JavaScript via their API calls.
 
 In looking at the dojo 0.4 source code, Dojo2D as it stands today 
involves
 two performance intensive-transformations. First, if you start with 
SVG
 markup, you will have to parse that markup in order to build the 
Dojo2D
 data structures via their API calls. Second, the Dojo2D data 
structures
 will need to be transformed into either SVG or VML within the 
browser so
 that the graphics will render. There needs to be some accelerated 
code
 paths for Dojo2D to be viable for complicated graphics, such as 
mapping.
 For example, on Firefox, why not pass through the SVG markup 
directly to
 the browser without building the Dojo2D data structures, and for 
IE, why
 not use client-side XSLT to transform SVG markup into VML? Another
 performance enhancement would be for Dojo to provide a utility which
 converts SVG markup into their Dojo2D data structures by invoking 
their
 built-in XML parser (which will build a private DOM image within
 JavaScript) and then converting this into their private Dojo2D data
 structures. All of this is easier said than done. I don't know what 
Dojo's
 plans are for these enhancements. Of course, it is an open source 
projects,
 so anyone can contribute if they are motivated and have the time.

[svg-developers] Re: Renesis Player 0.2 Release

2006-10-09 Thread Jeff Schiller
I'm glad to see Renesis is inching closer to being a plugin for SVG 
content in Internet Explorer, though I'm finding it far from usable 
at the moment.  I haven't realy touched on any DOM issues yet.

Disclaimer:  I've never written any SVGT 1.2 content yet, so this is 
my first attempt.

1) http://www.codedread.com/svg12test.svg does not show that any SVGT 
1.2 feature strings are implemented yet.  Is this correct?  At this 
stage, you need to be extremely accurate with what you implement so 
that people can plan accordingly.

2) When I try to reload/refresh any SVG document in the browser, the 
browser shows me a blank page.  

3) Why can't I see the source of the SVG file?  Please provide this 
in the right-click context menu going forward.  

4) http://www.codedread.com/svgtest.svg also says that no SVG 1.0 or 
1.1 feature strings are implemented.  Are you planning to support SVG 
1.1 at all?  Seems like all other plugins and native implementations 
in the desktop browser space are currently targetting SVG 1.1 and 
none yet support SVG 1.2.  If you support some of SVG 1.1 then it 
will really ease your adoption into the IE plugin space.  (I 
certainly would like to experiment with SVG 1.2 Tiny in the desktop 
too, but for practical purposes, SVG 1.1 Full is where the browsers 
are at the moment).

5) The document http://www.codedread.com/svghead.svg doesn't have a 
gradient fill in the word CodeDread and is completely missing my 
email address text.  Please compare to Firefox 1.5/2.0 and Opera 9.

6) The document http://www.codedread.com/svgnav.svg only shows the 
text, the button graphics are missing.  There is no script behavior 
either.  Please compare to Firefox 1.5/2.0 and Opera 9.

Congratulations on getting a step closer, and I appreciate your 
efforts, but because of the above simple issues I won't be looking at 
Renesis until the next version.  Please keep up the pace and get us 
something that we can use even for static images soon.

Thanks,
Jeff

Tim,

I'm not sure where this misconception arose, but Firefox does indeed 
support compressed svg (.svgz) files.  You need to make sure your web 
server properly supports directives though.  As per http://jwatt.org/
svg/authoring/#server-configuration, for Apache this means for the
 .svgz extension:

Content-Type: image/svg+xml
Content-Encoding: gzip

Hope this helps,

Use setAttributeNS().  I've never had a problem with this in either 
Firefox or Opera.  Just remember that the attributes on SVG entities 
are in the null namespace:

var someSVGCircleElement = document.getElementById(foo);
someSVGCircleElement.setAttributeNS(null, cx, 300);

[svg-developers] Re: Is Adobe's greed clearing the way for XAML

2006-09-08 Thread Jeff Schiller
Jonathan,

I agree, sound/audio is a sorely lacking component of the online web 
experience, I guess because maybe no one had proposed an open 
standard for audio/sound until lately (HTML5), so Netscape had some 
proprietary way, so does Flash, etc.

Sound/audio is something outside the scope of SVG 1.1, and Mozilla is 
currently targeting SVG 1.1 so you can't really equate this as a SVG 
bug (not saying you were implying that, I'm just clarifying for 
everyone).  SVGT 1.2 does contain support for sound, video, etc so we 
may see something if SVG 1.2 becomes the defacto standard one day.

However, outside of the SVG realm, Opera has decided to be the first 
browser (as far as I'm aware) to implement the Sound/Audio interface 
proposed by the WHATWG's HTML5 standard (also called Web Applications 
1.0).  Though this interface is relatively crude, it does allow you 
to do simple things like looping music and triggering sound on events.

Regards,
Jeff

[svg-developers] Re: Announcement: Adobe to Discontinue Adobe SVG Viewer

2006-09-07 Thread Jeff Schiller
We can't rely on Microsoft, just like we shouldn't have been 
comfortable relying on Adobe, to do the right thing and implement 
native support for SVG for free.  There are business considerations 
that will always take priority.  Even if they do it, I fear 
compatibility issues - their browser engine is still the worst of the 
major browsers out there.

So where are the open source, cross-platform SVG 1.1 viewers ?  What 
about taking the Mozilla base and developing a browser plugin from 
that for only SVG support?  What about candidates like AmanithVG and 
Renesis for a SVG 1.2 viewer?  Let's get a list of all the candidate 
open-source projects and contribute so that they flourish before Jan 
2008.

And I agree with Jon - praise to Adobe for past support, but I cry 
foul to MacroAdobe for this distinctly hostile gesture towards this 
development community.  They know there is no suitable replacement 
for IE as of today.

Hi Pat,
  Now that I am a member of the community and no longer an employee 
of
  Adobe, here is my reaction:
 
  (1) First off, I believe that Adobe deserves a great amount of
  appreciation for their contributions to SVG and the open standards
  world for their activities in previous years. Adobe provided a
  high-quality free implementation of an SVG viewer at large 
expense.
  (Pat, you know this perhaps better than anyone.) Adobe also has
  provided (and presumably will continue to provide) excellent 
support
  for SVG in some of its products, particularly Illustrator. Adobe 
has
  also made large contributions within the standards community on 
SVG.
 
  (2) It is understandable that at some point Adobe would announce 
the
  end-of-life for Adobe SVG Viewer. Since the Macromedia 
acquisition (at
  least, perhaps even earlier), it is clear that Adobe doesn't 
consider
  the SVG viewer to be strategic. Also, browsers are adding SVG 
support
  natively.
 
  (3) HOWEVER, I believe that some of the details regarding this

not in
  Adobe's own best interests. To me, it is OK to stop support

[svg-developers] Re: Is Adobe's greed clearing the way for XAML

2006-09-07 Thread Jeff Schiller
Actually Jon, I agree with both of your recent points... you stole my 
thunder on both accounts! ;)

1) Watch out for Dojo 0.4 for the cross-browser 2D graphics API (VML 
on IE and SVG everywhere else).  I've been hearing good things, 
anyway.

2) Watch for IE8+ (i.e. something after IE7) to support SVG.  Chris 
Wilson has been pretty public about the need to support a core set of 
web standards, of which he considers SVG a part of.

3) I'll mention a third point:  OpenLaszlo has been working hard on 
expanding its offerings to support multiple compilation targets.  By 
the end of the year they will support compiling to DHTML as well as 
Flash.  There is already some internal work on doing the same for SVG 
(though I suspect that SVG support could be rolled into DHTML at some 
point).  Anyway, it's high time we started moving up the stack anyway 
and getting out of coding applications with a set of cobbled-together 
HTML, JS, SVG, XML, CSS files...

In the meantime though, I really think an open source SVG 1.1 browser 
plugin is a worthwhile effort, simply because you can never have too 
many baskets for your eggs.

Jeff

 Guy,
 I have been biting my tongue, but your email was too provocative.
 Generally, I agree with your points. My additional comments:
 
 * The open source phenomenon is huge. The same phenomenon that 
transformed
 the server world (what with LAMP) is starting to affect the client 
world.
 Although the threat isn't imminent, over the next few years MS is 
in danger
 of losing control over the browsing experience to Mozilla and 
Safari, both
 of which are open source and both of which implement W3C standards
 successfully. Firefox's market share is likely to accelerate in the
 short-term as Enterprises discover its merits as a strong platform 
for
 application development and begin to require its usage instead of 
IE for
 Enterprise applications. This will result in larger numbers of 
people who
 start to feel comfortable with Firefox (because of being forced to 
use it
 at their company) and therefore comfortable in abandoning IE for 
browsing
 the Web. (Note that Google is investing a ton of money in Mozilla 
these
 days. Microsoft is very much aware of this.)
 
 * As a result, Microsoft will be forced to re-embrace standards in 
order to
 stop the loss of market share and reclaim control over their own 
Windows
 platform. Microsoft will be forced to do whatever it takes in order 
to push
 Firefox's (and Safari's) market shares down below 5% once again, and
 (unfortunately for them) in today's world that includes world-class 
support
 for open standards. And, thanks to the leadership at Firefox, 
Safari, and
 Opera, SVG has become a requirement. Microsoft has been aware of 
all of
 this for a long time. Therefore, I expect to see SVG support in IE 
betas by
 the end of 2007.
 
 * I would be hugely surprised if Microsoft followed Adobe's lead and
 announced VML end-of-life in the same (unacceptable) manner as 
Adobe.
 Microsoft is considerably more sensitive to supporting their 
existing
 community of developers. When VML is EOL'd, Microsoft will give 
something
 like a 5-year window before VML quits working with new versions of 
IE.
 
 Or at least that what my personal crystal ball shows.

[svg-developers] Re: SVG Doubt

2006-06-02 Thread Jeff Schiller
This is one of the things which confused me in the very beginning. 
The script element in SVG is not exactly the same as the script
element in HTML.  It is not obvious how to include external scripts
from the spec:  http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/script.html#ScriptElement 
It's like the specification is intentionally confusing on this point.

You have to use the xlink:href attribute, not the src attribute. 
Furthermore, the xlink namespace needs to be defined up front on your
SVG element:

svg version=1.1 ...
onload=init(); 
xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; 
xmlns:xlink=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink; 

script xlink:href=yourscript.js/
/svg

Another option is to include the script in the body of the script
element (be sure to use CDATA block if you use characters like , , etc).

Also, if all your functionality is happening in the SVG file directly,
I advise you to do away with the referencing HTML document as it
serves no purpose.

Jeff

 leg to have an element update. (I have not counting the loading time
yet).
 
 c- As some have suggested: Take the code from Batik or FF then make
it work
 on IE? building a Me too ? It is not going to be better either -I
think?-.
 
 d- I do believe the VML plug-gin for none IE may be more appealing
to big
 player such as Google map then having SVG or even MS live local ?
 
 3- Let's be real: Just give me an percentage of client that does not
have
 access to IE. You can have 15-20% of the client that have FF or
Opera. Among
 them how many does not have access to IE ? I think this number is
very
 small.
 
 4- Does Microsoft having any incentive to have SVG natively support ?.
 give these facts/fact-toids
 
 a- They already have VML.
 
 b- It does not take much time to get the open source then make it
become an
 plug-gin activeX as of AVG. As the way MS does in the pass with filer
 activeX; 99% percent of the development are already there?. I think
this
 will become one more Flash inferior product. Not  counting that MS are
 competing with Adobe on other areas of the Web development?
 Another ActiveX Me too ?
 
 c- Hope come when other browsers are supporting SVG?  will it 
cause MS to
 support SVG?. Without any other development we are all hung by a
thread. ASV
 is an ActiveX which is OS application now it works on XP, 2000. Does
it work
 on Vista? LongHorn?.
 
 
 
 ONLY THE FUTURE WILL TELL.
 
 
 Thanks

   This is one of the things which confused me in the very beginning.
   The script element in SVG is not exactly the same as the script

   from the spec:  http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/script.html#ScriptElement
   It's like the specification is intentionally confusing on this
point.
  
   You have to use the xlink:href attribute, not the src attribute.
   Furthermore, the xlink namespace needs to be defined up front on
your
   SVG element:
  
   svg version=1.1 ...
   onload=init();
   xmlns=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg;
   xmlns:xlink=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink;
   
   script xlink:href=yourscript.js/
   /svg
  
   Another option is to include the script in the body of the script
   element (be sure to use CDATA block if you use characters like , ,
  etc).
  
   Also, if all your functionality is happening in the SVG file
directly,
   I advise you to do away with the referencing HTML document as it
   serves no purpose.

[svg-developers] Re: svg-developers] audio in svg

2006-05-19 Thread Jeff Schiller
Brett,

Until SVG 1.2 begins to be implemented by browsers you have one of two
choices for audio in SVG:

1) Use Adobe SVG Viewer's proprietary extensions that play audio

2) Use Opera 9 in which they've implemented the WHATWG-proposed HTML5
Audio object (non-declarative, script-based)

Firefox native SVG will not be able to play audio (though you might
try to embed something, not sure).

Having said all that, I'm assuming you've copied both teh SVG and the
audio file (i.e. the actual sealab.mp3 file from Doug's site to try
this locally, correct?  In that case, I'm not sure why you're not able
to play the file...

[svg-developers] Re: svg-developers] audio in svg

2006-05-19 Thread Jeff Schiller
Just like any web application, you're referring to the resource file
(sealab.mp3) using a IRI reference.  If you're just saying
xlink:href=sealab.mp3 that means it needs to be in the same
directory/path as the SVG file.  If you're saying
xlink:href=http://somedomain.com/somepath/sealab.mp3; it needs to be
at that web location, etc.

Good luck,
Jeff

[svg-developers] SVG Roadshow (XTech Presentation)

2006-05-19 Thread Jeff Schiller
http://people.mozilla.com/~vladimir/xtech2006/

About 5 slides on SVG and 14 on canvas (including some stuff on
Canvas3D).  

What got me about this presentation is the slide-pack has about 8
slides with some really cool-looking canvas demos:  a video game, a
plush web-stat chart, funky animations, colourful borders, widgets. 
And in the whole slide-pack, only one single SVG example:  a very
crude-looking chart made from the Dojo toolkit that looks like it was
produced by Excel 2.0.

Where's the SVG love here?

In my mind, the potential uses for SVG vastly outweighs those of
canvas, yet SVG seems to be losing mindshare left and right.  Will
there be any mindshare left for SVG when WPF arrives?  

For my own sanity, can we get a list of cool SVG demos and experiments
that are out in the wild?  I'd like links to these demos in one
central place (not multiple emails in a newsgroup) so we can point
people to one URL and say: Look, here are some cool examples of what
SVG can do.  For this reason, I've started  the SVG Roadshow post at
GetSVG.com:  http://www.getsvg.com/general/announcements/svg_roadshow

Thanks,
Jeff

[svg-developers] Re: IE 5, 6,7 Support SVG 'Natively'? -Make it easy-

2006-05-18 Thread Jeff Schiller
Phi,

Can you give us some more information here?  I haven't installed your
DLL yet, but what is it exactly - is it a plugin for IE?  

Do you have some more information like what SVG features it supports,
how it works.  I'm afraid I had a little trouble understanding your
text file.

FYI, just for terminology sake, it's not native support of SVG
since this is some 3rd party DLL that people will still have to
download.  Native support to me always implied that the browser
supports it directly without the need for any additional downloads. 
But it still looks exciting whatever you've got here...

 In short SVG Protocol allows you to have the SVG document or elements

[svg-developers] Re: Vote for SVG Support in IE7

2006-05-11 Thread Jeff Schiller
To everyone on this list:  

I did get a private reply from Chris Wilson of the IEBlog a few days
ago and have debated whether to relay the news.  Here goes:

Chris stated that they are not planning to include ASV with IE7 for
reasons that:  a) it is an ActiveX control (whether he means security
issues or the Eolas thing) and b) Adobe isn't actively maintaining
that control.  

On the flip side, he also said that they expect to natively support
SVG at some point, but can't give any further details (citing that the
roadmap is still being worked out).  They are aware how much demand is
there for it, though.

Finally, he said that he expects to address this eventually in the
IEBlog at some point.  I think this would be a good idea.

Quick question to those who have tried IE7 Betas:  Do they bundle the
Flash plugin?  Maybe the best bet now is to get Adobe to include the
ASV as part of the Flash plugin?  Maybe John F can speak to this?  The
silence is deafening...

There is comfort in the fact that ALL other major browsers are
actively pursuing SVG support (Opera, Firefox, Camino, SeaMonkey,
Safari, Konqueror).  Even despite the market share, this does put
pressure on the IE team to keep parity.  It will happen eventually.

As SVG support matures in the other browsers and becomes a little less
sketchy, I think we'll start to see web apps that work better or
look nicer or have increased functionality in browsers other than
IE.  The nice thing is that there is now more than one free
alternative to IE, the challenge is overcoming the 'Blue E = Internet'
mindset of the masses.  Does anyone really think that IE's dominance
in TODAY's web is not due to its automatic deployment on all Windows
PCs?  IE has been obsolete for more than 2 years and they still have
significant catch-up to do for standards support.

Anyway, I think it's up to us as SVG developers/evangelists to
convince people that SVG is worthwhile and start building out those
wow applications.  Heck, let's make those applications XHTML+SVG
with suggestions to IE users that they can update themselves to one of
the free alternatives to use the site (and some screenshots of what
they're missing, of course).

Of course this is dependent upon getting alternative browser support
of SVG into a more even/reliable state (in my mind this equates to
Firefox supporting declarative animation, can others give their
opinion on Konqueror and Safari levels of support?).

Whoof - once again a small email has turned into a long diatribe, my
apologies!

Jeff

 * First : I cant see why democracy rules would apply in such a setting
 MS calls to vote might hide other purposes ...
 * Second : Assuming (as it seems) that there is a more or less
imminent war
 between MS and Adobedia around RIA technologies, I cant see why MS would
 bundle ASV in IE and thus introduce some kind of dependency to Adobe.

 then including SVG support in IE maybe makes sense strategically ? This

 Hello All,
 
 I've looked at the recent votes, and its at about 185 and continuing.
 
 I guess we could go on for the next few months and build this to any 
 number. I think it's time to make a statement to the IEblog, rather 
 than extend this further.
 
 I'd like to nominate Jeff Schiller to revisit that blog to present 
 the SVG Developers Statement, based on the comments from the 
 voting list.
 
 This statement would assist the IE7 team to make a decision, and see 
 the future if the right decision is made.
 
 We can quicky build this statement on this list, giving opportunity 
 for all to provide their input.

[svg-developers] Re: Vote for SVG Support in IE7

2006-05-11 Thread Jeff Schiller
Just a stray thought, someone had posted an example of a Google Maps
mashup that used a driving path that could be dragged/adjusted in
real-time.  If that app actually snapped the waypoints to spots in the
map and then gave the new driving directions that corresponded to real
street corners, etc I think that would be amazing.  Of course this
isn't trivial ;)

 To everyone on this list:  
 
 I did get a private reply from Chris Wilson of the IEBlog a few days
 ago and have debated whether to relay the news.  Here goes:
 
 Chris stated that they are not planning to include ASV with IE7 for
 reasons that:  a) it is an ActiveX control (whether he means security
 issues or the Eolas thing) and b) Adobe isn't actively maintaining
 that control.  
 
 On the flip side, he also said that they expect to natively support
 SVG at some point, but can't give any further details (citing that the
 roadmap is still being worked out).  They are aware how much demand is
 there for it, though.
 
 Finally, he said that he expects to address this eventually in the
 IEBlog at some point.  I think this would be a good idea.
 
 Quick question to those who have tried IE7 Betas:  Do they bundle the
 Flash plugin?  Maybe the best bet now is to get Adobe to include the
 ASV as part of the Flash plugin?  Maybe John F can speak to this?  The
 silence is deafening...
 
 There is comfort in the fact that ALL other major browsers are
 actively pursuing SVG support (Opera, Firefox, Camino, SeaMonkey,
 Safari, Konqueror).  Even despite the market share, this does put
 pressure on the IE team to keep parity.  It will happen eventually.
 
 As SVG support matures in the other browsers and becomes a little less
 sketchy, I think we'll start to see web apps that work better or
 look nicer or have increased functionality in browsers other than
 IE.  The nice thing is that there is now more than one free
 alternative to IE, the challenge is overcoming the 'Blue E = Internet'
 mindset of the masses.  Does anyone really think that IE's dominance
 in TODAY's web is not due to its automatic deployment on all Windows
 PCs?  IE has been obsolete for more than 2 years and they still have
 significant catch-up to do for standards support.
 
 Anyway, I think it's up to us as SVG developers/evangelists to
 convince people that SVG is worthwhile and start building out those
 wow applications.  Heck, let's make those applications XHTML+SVG
 with suggestions to IE users that they can update themselves to one of
 the free alternatives to use the site (and some screenshots of what
 they're missing, of course).
 
 Of course this is dependent upon getting alternative browser support
 of SVG into a more even/reliable state (in my mind this equates to
 Firefox supporting declarative animation, can others give their
 opinion on Konqueror and Safari levels of support?).
 
 Whoof - once again a small email has turned into a long diatribe, my
 apologies!
 
 Regards,
 Jeff

  I dont know why but I woke up this morning thinking about this vote
  (probably the bad democratic shape of France ...)
  
  I wish as much as everyone does on this list that SVG becomes THE
  graphic Standard on the web but I am just kind of sceptical about
   this vote thing :
  
  * First : I cant see why democracy rules would apply in such a setting
  MS calls to vote might hide other purposes ...
  * Second : Assuming (as it seems) that there is a more or less
 imminent war
  between MS and Adobedia around RIA technologies, I cant see why MS
would
  bundle ASV in IE and thus introduce some kind of dependency to Adobe.
  * Third :  However  if Adobe  finally  decides to completely abandon
 SVG,
  then including SVG support in IE maybe makes sense strategically ?
This
  would explain why Adobe is so silent about their intent about SVG.

Good, but O9 doesn't support mp3 (last I experimented).  WAV files
