[WSG] using scalable vector graphics
i am beginning to experiment with svgs and find them fascinating. the problem i have found with using them is they will not validate because of the tag. i'm not sure at this point what to ask or how to ask it, except how to use them so they will validate. your thoughts, resource links on use, etc. please. dwain -- Dwain Alford [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.alforddesigngroup.com "The artist may use any form which his expression demands; for his inner impulse must find suitable expression."

Re: [WSG] Download box in Firefox
Hi As Angus has said, this is off topic. It's more browser centric/web dev issue than about standards on the web. Please reply off list.

Re: [WSG] Download box in Firefox
Stick the AddType line in a text file, rename the file .htaccess (notice the leading dot) and upload that into your site's home directory. If your host has allowed it, .htaccess files can define local rules for your site without the need to change the core httpd.conf (which is unlikely to happen on a shared hosting solution).
