The tutor continues about web graphics, this time SVG.

The reader is informed that SVG graphics may not be viewable from Internet Explorer 8 or less.

SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. As I understand, all the major browsers have supported it for some time. It’s supplanted VML, even in IE (Internet Explorer).

Possibly because of its widespread adoption, SVG might be a little easier to code than VML. However, the two have similarities (my reading suggests that SVG developed from VML and a few other technologies).

Here’s a link to an svg demo:

My apologies for not posting so often lately…year-end occasions have taken precedence. I have a ten and a twelve-year-old:)

I’ll be discussing SVG much more in coming posts.

HTH:)
