Hello,
I know this isn't exactly an Inkscape issue, but I gather there is some knowledge in this group so I'm asking here (and before getting tarred and feathered over at comp.infosystems.authoring.html for non-topicality).
I want to embed an SVG image in a webpage using the <object> tag. This works well, but I'd like the image to be scaled to a certain fraction of the page's width. After all, the "S" in SVG stands for scaleable. But when I add a "width" attribute to the object tag, it just cuts off the embedded image rather than scaling it.
I know SVG support is missing or buggy on most browsers, but I'd still like to experiment with it. I'm using Opera 9.20 on Linux.
Unfortunately, Inkscape's command-line parameter --export-width isn't honored with the --export-plain-svg option; otherwise I'd just do some downscaling in my webpage-generating makefile.
Thanks for any hints, --D.
