The early versions of Firefox (1.0.x to approx 1.5-r4) used the "mozsvg" USE flag to enable firefox to load SVG images. However, the Changelog says: *mozilla-firefox-1.5-r4 (23 Dec 2005) 23 Dec 2005; Jory A. Pratt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +mozilla-firefox-1.5-r4.ebuild: canvas and svg now default and indeed, the mozsvg USE flag is no longer available to firefox, but my firefox seems to render svg images fine. I tested by going to http://www.linuxrising.org/svg_test/test.html and opening one of the images in a new tab. http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20030813/svggen/styling-css-01-b.svg I'm using Firefox 1.5-r9 (self-compiled, not the -bin). So I'm not quite sure what your problem is, but it seems that it must relate in some fashion to the specific version of FF (maybe you're using a version that needed the USE flag, but you don't have it enabled).

Well, I don't have a web server so I guess I'll have to just live with it for a time being. Thanks for looking into the problem :) -- Regards, Abhay pgpUdVl5OOI8P.pgp Description: PGP signature

I am not that familiar with eog, so can't really help more with it. For firefox, I just found the following tidbit: http://www.mail-archive.com/svg-developers@yahoogroups.com/msg07375.html basically, svgz should be gzip'd svg files. For some reason, Firefox cannot deal with local svgz files, but can display it when served the correct HTTP headers from a webserver. This would explain why it worked on my box (because I only looked at svg files on the web). Which means, possibly, that if you have a webserver (Apache) set up on your box, you might be able to look at the svgz files by serving it via http://localhost/file.svgz?

[gentoo-user] Viewing SVG/SVGZ files.
Hello Everyone, I have downloaded SVG/SVGZ wallpapers from kde-look.org but when I try to view SVG/SVGZ in konqueror, firefox or such programs, I get weird output. When I try to open SVGZ files in Konqueror, I get XML Parsing Error while Firefox shows a pop-up to save the file some where. On using Kview, I get "Unknown Image Format" while "Eye of Gnome" doesn't do anything, just sits there without even throwing an error. In case of SVG files, they open fine in Firefox and eog but in Konqueror I get "image/svg+xml" written on the page while kview once again complains of "Unknown Image Format". Here I must mention that both SVGZ and SVG files open fine in Opera. It seems that I have missed some USE flag or not installed some libraries because of which this is happening. I tried to google but came up with only a Adobe SVG Viewer. Do I need to install that or is there some other GPLed solution available? Any pointers in helping me solve this silly mistake of mine will be really great. TIA -- Regards, Abhay pgpEhFRpa0OtQ.pgp Description: PGP signature
