I haven't tested its ability to render SVG embedded in an HTML page; my gut guess is that it won't work, but who knows. For my purposes being able to browse individual svg's is enough.
Would it be very difficult to adapt the inkview code to act as a plugin and not as an external viewer?
mozplugger with mozilla may do the job:
Again, I haven't tried this.
Sounds like it'd be worth an experiment.
There was also a server-side Apache mod_rsvg that I ran across a year or two ago; the guy that created it never provided it as a product but he gave me the code (GPL) if anyone's interested. It lets Apache present PNG's of SVG's on the fly - i.e., if you have a set of svg's stored on a web server, this would allow browsing them (and scaling, by passing x/y parameters, e.g. myfile.svg?x=2.00&y=2.00.
The librsvg Web site has a link http://librsvg.sourceforge.net/links/ pointing to a freshmeat project page for mod_rsvg but the page seems to no longer be there http://freshmeat.net/projects/modrsvg/?topic_id=105 (this doesn't work either) http://freshmeat.net/projects/modrsvg/
Anyone any idea if mod_rsvg has been incorporated by another project? (I have a theory that it has become part of librsvg)
There is also a program svg2png based on the Cairo codebase that could be considered. It's a standard svg-in, png-out tool. I've experimented with it a little, and so far so good, but I haven't tried complicated svg's on it yet.
