Hey Randy, I don't yet see how the Ajax/javascript approach could fill the vacuum left by ASV's sudden demise. I fully agree with Jon's response and I have nothing to add there. However, I wanted to clarify that my proof of concept was purely intended as a means of rendering static vector

Another huge issue for our firm is that FF (at least, haven't tested opera) doesn't support compressed .svgz which ASV did. Our clients won't be happy if we start sending 5+mb docs over the wire to them, when with ASV they would compress down to under a meg. --- In

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
