== Declare DOCTYPE for SVG == | |||
Similarly, declaring a correct DOCTYPE for .svg files is important as well, instances have been observed where an SVG file without namespace and incorrect doctype did work in Adobe SVG, but with the namespace added it didn’t work, until the DOCTYPE was corrected as well. The doctype is supposed to be: | |||
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> | |||
This should solve the cases where the addition of the namespaces required by Mozilla breaks rendering with Adobe SVG. | |||
