thanks for all feedback posted so far.
i will think about andreas' comment about the "at your own risk" link, maybe i can come up with a cleaner way to do this. thanks for pointing out the correct mime type also. i never really thought about one of them being right and the other one wrong. will be fixed. as for the plugin check, i have abandoned the idea of doing it completely in javascript, and have resigned to the "old" way of loading a hidden svg, which, after having loaded successfully, redirects to another page. that page then calls back to the main interface. on the page containing the svg there is a meta refresh tag, which, in case the svg does not redirect earlier, calls an error page, that, in return, also calls back to the main interface. depending on the type of callback, i display the warning or not. the progress bar animation runs approximately the same amount of time that the meta refresh tag waits, and is mainly there to give the impression that something is happening and also to attract the user's attention to the entry point of the simulation. i will try to find out why the check is not working under linux oder macOsX as soon as possible. there is still loads of work to do, primarilly in the backend: saving and retrieving, dxf export, jpg- and pdf conversion. also, i am working on a small http server, that will make it possible to run the application "offline" on a single machine. that way, one would still be able to use one's favorite browser, while the server will grant (controlled) access to the local file system. best regards, hannes ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
