I guess you mean the most popular solution and not simply "the 
standard".  

Of course there are many competing technologies in this, but SVG is 
not going anywhere - it's become a required technology in the European 
mobile market, it's become popular on the Linux desktop (KDE and 
GNOME) and most recently it has seen advances in native web browser 
implementations (Mozilla, Opera and hopefully soon Safari).

One important question to consider is whether you want to be locked in 
to a technology controlled by only one company.  Adobe's Flash may 
have the most mature and widely deployed platform, Microsoft may have 
a lot riding on XAML, but SVG is a vendor-neutral solution that will 
(I believe) become the most ubiquitous.
