What specific features should I retain?  What are you using

Re: [svg-developers] planetsvg.com down

2010-10-07 Thread ddailey
Hi Doug,

There used to be a link on svg.org that talked about server configuration 
issues (mime types and the like). The SVG Primer pointed to it. Then it went 
away, so we found a place on Planet Svg that seemed to have even better 
information and redirected the pointer to that. But now, sigh, that is down too.

Does anyone know of another good place to refer students to info on server 
configuration until Planet SVG is back up?

thanks
D

[svg-developers] Tough on browsers

2010-10-07 Thread ddailey
The following document (example1) is a candidate for an acid test perhaps? It 
has an animated stop (using straight animation, rather than animateColor, on 
named colors) applied to a mask applied to an image. (I'm assuming this is 
legal by the spec since it works almost every where else, including in 
feDisplacement which is usually the last thing that a young SVG browser seems 
to get right)

Status:
Opera -- mucks up the lower part of the reflected gradient (I suspect this is a 
known bug, since I've seen it before in other examples)
FF4b -- doesn't animate the stop within the gradient
Chrome -- doesn't interpolate across color ranges of values in the gradient
Safari -- doesn't reflect the gradient and doesn't interpolate between color 
values 
ASV -- seems to be correct, but slow

Example 2 shows that Chrome and Safari understand how to interpolate smootlhly 
between black and white, apparently just not when it involves a gradient stop. 
Example 2, however points out an apparent bug in FF4b6 which seems reluctant to 
let the SMIL override the gradient fill declared in the tag.

Example 1
