For IE9 (and presumably IE10 as well), the HTML document has to have the HTML5 doctype declaration:
<!DOCTYPE html>. It should work just fine after that. regards David From: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:svg-developers@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of krugerboy1971 Sent: Tuesday, March 13, 2012 7:42 AM To: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com Subject: [svg-developers] ie9 and foreign namespace attributes I've got an HTML document with some inline SVG <svg id="mapWindow" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="79895.9 -55.7449 664697 664697"> <g xmlns:fme="http://www.safe.com/fme" transform="translate(0,664586) scale(1, -1)"> <path id="E06000027" fme:NAME="Torbay" d="M 292888,54358.5 L 290285...</path> ...</g> ...</svg> I'm using the fme: namespace here to store the name of a polygon to save me looking it up elsewhere - works fine everywhere except in IE9 which is not recognising it. Elsewhere, I'd quite like to create attributes using this namespace (e.g fme:Count) - again, works on other browsers except IE. Has anybody got any suggestions for forcing IE9 to recognise this or do I need to avoid foreign namespace attributes to ensure maximum browser compatibility?
