This isn't a very complete answer, not having either of the relevant devices, but a couple of observations may be worthwhile: 1. Androids purchased last summer, like mine, apparently will not run SVG. I didn't realize that Droids became obsolete so quickly, but I'm told one needs the Ice

Hi Alan, My own experiments with HTML5 as a container for SVG persuade me that it's not quite ready for prime time yet. HTML5 has some good ideas but hasn't yet quite congealed I think. If I want the few goodies that HTML has to offer that SVG doesn't yet (flowing text and tables), then I tend
