That's a regexp string match on the returned object, all SVG filter  
primitive interfaces start with "SVGFE", eg "SVGFEConvolveMatrixElement"  
[1].

Like Chris Peto writes, it doesn't work in IE8 with the Adobe plugin. My  
suggested way of testing was meant primarily for checking for native  
support. Also the Adobe plugin support docs[2] doesn't list all the svg  
filter primitive elements in the DOM section, which could be another  
reason for failing there. An alternative could be to use a two-level test,  
first check with hasFeature, and if that returns false check using the DOM  
interfaces.

Cheers
