I have Inkscape working as a standalone, using Firefox as the test bed. Now I want to put together an hybrid file, html but with svg embedded. I found this toy online but it doesn't work on Firefox:
<html> <body>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"> <circle cx="100" cy="50" r="40" stroke="black" stroke-width="2" fill="red"/> </svg>
</body> </html>
When I tried adding a more elaborate file created by Inkscape the text came through but the graphic elements were missing and the text passages were jumbled together. Various other options like <object or <embed either didn't work or didn't allow linking etc.
At this point is svg in html too fragile to fool with? Are Inkscape extensions to svg getting in the way?
