On the other hand, the Adobe SVG Plugin works correctly in MSIE 6 for windows, and will likely also work in MSIE 7. ( The adobe plugin has never worked well enough in mozilla or safari; a key problem has been the ability to call out of the SVG ecma-scripting environment into the browser's and vice-versa)
It will be a pain branching to support SVG content via a plugin (MSIE) VS via native browser support (firefox deerpark, later safari versions), but this should not be so much trouble that it makes cross-browser SVG support impossible. cheers Mike Malloch [email protected] writes: >Speaking to different parts of Microsoft, SVG has never come up.
