If you are planning on doing mobile development, chances are you are targetting the SVG Tiny 1.1 profile which is currently being deployed on a vast array on mobile phones, primarily in Europe and Northern America. You can see a not-necessarily exhaustive list of SVG-enabled mobile phones at: http://svg.org/special/svg_phones SVG Tiny 1.1 does not have scripting capabilities while however allowing for some interactivity through its animation elements facilities. You can change an object's color when you mouse over it, or make animations start when you click on a button, etc. Most of the things that involve actual conditional logic that is usually expressed with a programming language is not going to be possible in SVG Tiny 1.1. Later this year, SVG Tiny 1.2 devices will start showing up on the market and spread more massively throughout 2006. SVG Tiny 1.2, the new specification for mobile SVG, allows you for full-blown interactivity through ECMAScript (same language as ActionScript) or Java , multimedia capabilities, etc. Currently available tools for creating mobile SVG content: - Adobe Creative Suite 2 Illustrator and GoLive - Ikivo Animator - Beatware Mobile Designer Those will definitely help you get on your feet.
