Hmm ok I see what you're saying. I'm trying to include an <svg>
element in my document.

If I use the xhtml doc type template you linked to, I get it validated
100% in that validator you mentioned. Now I try adding a simple svg
element and it failes.

When I add my <svg> stuff to it, the validation fails. But I'm adding
it as specified from the mozilla page on svg:
http://jwatt.org/svg/demos/xhtml-with-inline-svg.xhtml

when I leave this document as .html, no svg elements are rendered.
When switching to .xhtml, then the browsers render it.

I know this out of scope of GWT, just throwing it out there!

Thanks for your help!
