would you look at the image now with css constraints /**/ out? a year ago i put up a svg file and set the width to 100% and the file sized to the window regardless of resolution. this one doesn't seem to do that. what i read the other night on the w3c site on svg is that there is now a way to set the viewbox to where the file will size with the users screen resolution. guess i gotta go dig some more.


As I said it's to do with the width and height attributes on the root SVG element, not CSS.

Here's some versions with SVG's width/height removed...

http://holloway.co.nz/wellypug/svg/svg-test1b.html

In test1a the SVG now scales based on CSS constraints which are a fixed pixel size. In test1b the CSS constraints are percentage based rules, and as you resize the browser window you'll see that preserving the aspect ratio means that the text will only line-up some of the time.

This one resizes a second SVG without an aspect ratio, and keeps the text pretty-much where it should be regardless of the browser window.

I don't have Opera/Safari to test on unfortunately, so I don't know if this will work on them.


as far as firefox goes and blaming the wrong people, i'm not blaming anybody, just stating an observation. [... ] opera on the other hand is rendering the page as written, which tells me that it is closer to standards compliance in this situation than is firefox.


Yeah but the point is you're saying that Opera is rendering the page as written and that this is a sign of standards compliance, whereas I just think your SVG was a bit wrong and you're blaming Firefox for following standards / praising Opera for disobeying.
