It's an unnecessary "feature" in the AVG renderer AFAICS if there is a reference to an undeclared linear gradient then the whole graphic turns white-on-white. <path style="fill:url(#linearGradient2410);fill-opacity:0.17777778;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1.0000000pt" d="M -11.141640,-17.547670 C -20.981440,-11.943002 -24.300340,0.44333470 -18.714160,10.118892 C -13.127970,19.794450 -0.74164120,23.113364 8.9339183,17.527178 C 8.9339183,17.527179 -18.714170,10.118900 -11.141640,-17.547670 z " sodipodi:nodetypes="cccc" /> was the culprit. The gradient got used in an icon without being added to the overall pool of gradients in the document. >I don't actually have ASV instaled right now - Firefox is at v1.5b1 >using its internal renderer, Opera is at 8.5 with its internal renderer >and I have IE using the Corel 2.1 plugin.
